The Problem Of Aggregation In Spatial Equilibrium Analysis, Brian Schmiesing, Steven Blank
The Problem Of Aggregation In Spatial Equilibrium Analysis, Brian Schmiesing, Steven Blank
Economics Staff Paper Series
Aggregation across time has long been recognized as a potential source of specification error within time series modeling. This source of specification error has major implications for the use of causality tests in spatial equilibrium analyses. This study reviews the theoretical econometric literature to generate hypotheses which are empirically tested to illustrate the impacts of aggregation on causality tests. Granger causality tests for three major corn markets reveal one-way causality to be "fragile" with respect to changes in the level of time aggregation in data. Dynamic multipliers are discussed as being one method of checking the specification of the model.

Analysis Of Agricultural Assessment Sales Ratios For Property Tax Purposes During Changing Trends In Land Values, Larry Janssen, Mark Edelman, Cindy Swinson
Analysis Of Agricultural Assessment Sales Ratios For Property Tax Purposes During Changing Trends In Land Values, Larry Janssen, Mark Edelman, Cindy Swinson
Economics Staff Paper Series
Assessment sales ratios are used to "equalize" property tax assessments. Mean soil productivity ratings did not indicate differences between productivity of land sold and all land in the counties examined during periods of rising and declining agricultural land values. Regression results did not indicate underassessment of more productive land in the counties considered.
Basic Cooperative Principles And Methods Of Doing Business, Brian Schmiesing
Basic Cooperative Principles And Methods Of Doing Business, Brian Schmiesing
Economics Staff Paper Series
This paper will first define what a cooperative principle is. The dangerous viewing principles as cooperative objective or independent of rules and discipline are discussed. Second, a set of commonly used cooperative principles are critically examined for their implications for cooperatives as business organizations. Third, an alternative set of principles are advocated to eliminate the confusion currently existing. Finally, a potential role of the Extension Service and vocational agriculture instructors in assisting their clientele in the current crisis is reviewed.

Agricultural Lender Attitudes On Farm Finance Crisis Management Programming By The Cooperative Extension Service, Mark Edelman, Brian Schmiesing, Diane Kolmer, Cindy Swinson
Agricultural Lender Attitudes On Farm Finance Crisis Management Programming By The Cooperative Extension Service, Mark Edelman, Brian Schmiesing, Diane Kolmer, Cindy Swinson
Economics Staff Paper Series
Agricultural lenders were surveyed to clarify the nature of the problems faced by financially stressed farm borrowers and the appropriate Cooperative Extension Service response in educational programming. Specifically determined were skill training priorities, adequacy of farm records appropriate delivery mechanisms, preferred target audiences, and institutional preferences.
Implications Of Basis Changes To Put Option Trading, Brian Schmiesing
Implications Of Basis Changes To Put Option Trading, Brian Schmiesing
Economics Staff Paper Series
Agricultural commodity options are based on futures contracts. Producers buying put options are subject to basis risk. Unlike a storage hedge, a put buyer must be concerned with how the basis changes. Eight basis change scenarios are analyzed to indicate why this is true. In addition, the returns to buying a put are contrasted with a storage hedge. Recommendations are made on how a producer might develop a strategy for when to use a put option versus hedging.

Determinants Of Farmland Prices During Periods Of Rising And Declining Farmland Values, Larry Janssen, Cindy Swinson
Determinants Of Farmland Prices During Periods Of Rising And Declining Farmland Values, Larry Janssen, Cindy Swinson
Economics Staff Paper Series
A study of farmland sales in four South Dakota counties indicated productivity and location variables are important in explaining variation in per acre sale price, while financial variables are not. The same explanatory variables are significant in periods of rising (1979-1980) and declining (1981- 1982) prices but parameter estimates vary significantly between the periods. Over 80% of per acre sale price variation was explained in both periods. These findings support traditional explanations of cross-sectional farmland price variation, and (2) suggest that explanatory factors exert varying pressure on farmland sale prices at different times.

Combining Causality Tests And Path Analysis To Model Agricultural Markets, Steven Blank, Brian Schmiesing
Combining Causality Tests And Path Analysis To Model Agricultural Markets, Steven Blank, Brian Schmiesing
Economics Staff Paper Series
Causality tests and path analysis are combined to create a new procedure for use in evaluating agricultural markets. The two complementary techniques combine to form a strong process for measuring the direction and strength of causal relationships within a structural equation model. An empirical example which evaluates midwestern corn market price relationships is presented.

South Dakota Farmland Market Trends - Current And Future Research, Larry Janssen
South Dakota Farmland Market Trends - Current And Future Research, Larry Janssen
Economics Staff Paper Series
Agriculture land market trends are of considerable interest to many people - farm managers landowners, realtors, prospective buyers and sellers of farm real estate, loan officers, agribusiness managers, public officials and the general public. Interest and concern about farmland market trends intensifies during periods of rapid increases or decreases in land prices. Both of these events have occurred since 1971. For South Dakota, average per acre farmland values increased 345% from 1971 to 1982 ($85 to $291) . Since late 1981 and early 1982, farmland prices have steadily declined in most regions of South Dakota - reflecting sharply reduced profits …
