Grain Production & Handling Trends In South Dakota And Their Implications, Bashir Qasmi, Clayton Wilhelm
Grain Production & Handling Trends In South Dakota And Their Implications, Bashir Qasmi, Clayton Wilhelm
Economics Staff Paper Series (1969 - 2017)
Over the last three decades, producers in South Dakota have planted increasingly more acres under corn and soybeans and have moved away from producing oats and barley. The wheat production in the state has also increased during this period. The grain handling industry in South Dakota has also changed over time. The number of commercial elevators has significantly decreased during the past 30 years, and the operating capacities of the remaining ones are much larger. Genetically modified (GM) or transgenic corn and soybeans were introduced in 1996. Presently, South Dakota is leading the nation in adoption of transgenic corn and …

Mandatory Versus Voluntary Price Reporting: An Empirical Investigation Of The Market Transparency Controversy, Scott Fausti, R. Keimig, Matthew Diersen, Han Kim
Mandatory Versus Voluntary Price Reporting: An Empirical Investigation Of The Market Transparency Controversy, Scott Fausti, R. Keimig, Matthew Diersen, Han Kim
Economics Staff Paper Series (1969 - 2017)
The ability of the former voluntary price reporting system to generate market transparency in U.S. livestock markets was called into question by producer groups and academic research prior to the new federal system of mandatory price reporting being implemented. The market transparency issue is investigated by comparing price data collected from the former AMS voluntary price reporting system to mandatory price reporting data for live slaughter steers collected by the State of South Dakota before the advent of the new federal system. The relationship between a set of public price report series and the South Dakota mandatory price series is …
Agricultural, Resource And Ecological Economics With A ‘Multifunctionality’ Perspective, Thomas Dobbs
Agricultural, Resource And Ecological Economics With A ‘Multifunctionality’ Perspective, Thomas Dobbs
Economics Staff Paper Series (1969 - 2017)
It would seem that agriculture in industrialized countries is experiencing 'the best of times' and 'the worst of times'. Productivity per unit of land and, consequently, aggregate food and fiber output have climbed dramatically since World War II. Food is generally 'cheap' relative to average per capita incomes. However, the costs of this abundance are becoming increasingly apparent. Drinking water supplies are becoming contaminated, bird and fish populations have declined, plant and animal biodiversity has been lost, and soil organic matter has declined. Also, agriculture appears increasingly vulnerable to human and animal health scares. Witness the recent outbreaks in Europe …

Economic Evaluation Of Cropshare And Cash Lease Contracts In South Dakota And Nebraska, Larry Janssen, John Cole, Xuan Xu, Bruce Johnson
Economic Evaluation Of Cropshare And Cash Lease Contracts In South Dakota And Nebraska, Larry Janssen, John Cole, Xuan Xu, Bruce Johnson
Economics Staff Paper Series (1969 - 2017)
Factors influencing choice of share or cash rental leases for cropland are examined using a 1996 dataset containing 1071 lease contracts in Nebraska and in South Dakota. Logistic regression results indicate tenant's age, capital position, and relationship with landlord were more important than leased land use or crop management variables.
Gleaning Information From Mandatory Livestock Price Reporting, Matthew Diersen
Gleaning Information From Mandatory Livestock Price Reporting, Matthew Diersen
Economics Staff Paper Series (1969 - 2017)
Mandatory livestock price reporting has changed how prices are reported and used by analysts and market participants. Reporting has affected the availability of many reports and has added new reports and information. The new information often needs to be put into a meaningful form for direct use by analysts and participants. A brief overview of the evolution and implementation of mandatory price reporting is given. The new price reports are then discussed and compared to voluntary reports. Special attention is given to new reports that give insights into the short-and medium-run cattle supply situation. As South Dakota had State-level reporting …

China's Wheat Production Projections And Implications For Imports, Bashir Qasmi, Yunqing Wang, Scott Fausti, Han Kim
China's Wheat Production Projections And Implications For Imports, Bashir Qasmi, Yunqing Wang, Scott Fausti, Han Kim
Economics Staff Paper Series (1969 - 2017)
Wheat production in China is analyzed using a seven-region model and data for 1978-1997. The empirical results indicate; 1) the area planted to wheat in China is responsive to the real wheat procurement price, 2) contrary to prior expectations, the growth in GNP, a proxy for industrialization and urbanization, did not seem to impact the wheat area significantly, 3) wheat yield showed a significant upward trend in all regions over time, depicting combined impacts of increased chemical fertilizer use, expansion of irrigated areas, increased investment, and other technological improvements, and 4) Chinese wheat production is projected to range from 132.33 …

Selected Economic Implications And Policy Aspects Of Agricultural Biotechnology, Evert Van Der Sluis, Matthew Diersen, Thomas Dobbs
Selected Economic Implications And Policy Aspects Of Agricultural Biotechnology, Evert Van Der Sluis, Matthew Diersen, Thomas Dobbs
Economics Staff Paper Series (1969 - 2017)
The paper provides an overview of the types of economic costs, benefits, and risks involved with agricultural biotechnology at the farm level, at the market level, and for the farm and food system as a whole. Both advantages and disadvantages of agricultural biotechnology are discussed. Among the drivers of the US domestic and international consumer demand for transgenic crop products discussed in the paper are environmental and food safety concerns. A comparison is made between a 'science-based' regulatory framework and a policy based on the precautionary principle. The authors argue that open dialogue is needed for achieving improved public understanding …
An Empirical Investigation In To The Factors Influencing The Economic Incentive To Retain Ownership Of Weaned Steer Calves, Scott Fausti, Brad Johnson, William Epperson, Nancy Grathwohl
An Empirical Investigation In To The Factors Influencing The Economic Incentive To Retain Ownership Of Weaned Steer Calves, Scott Fausti, Brad Johnson, William Epperson, Nancy Grathwohl
Economics Staff Paper Series (1969 - 2017)
Marketing and production data collected from weaned calves (628 head) in a university sponsored retained ownership demonstration program are analyzed to identify factors affecting the annualized rate of return when retaining ownership versus selling the calves at weaning. Data were collected on the following characteristics associated with the calves: 1) ranch-of-origin production management practices; 2) feedlot performance; 3) carcass merit; 4) health history; and 5) market prices. Retained ownership until slaughter was more profitable, on average, when compared to selling calves at weaning. The calculated annualized rate of return to retained ownership versus selling calves at weaning averaged 11.5% per …
Does The Producer Have An Incentive To Sell Fed Cattle On A Grid?, Scott Fausti, Bashir Qasmi
Does The Producer Have An Incentive To Sell Fed Cattle On A Grid?, Scott Fausti, Bashir Qasmi
Economics Staff Paper Series (1969 - 2017)
Barriers to the adoption of grid pricing by fed cattle producers are investigated over a 206-week period (Jan. 1997 to Dec. 2000). The empirical findings document: I) when fed cattle are evaluated on a grid pricing system versus a dressed weight pricing system, a price differential per cwt. and a per-head revenue differential exists over time, 2) the price differential per cwt. is subject to seasonal variation which contributes to inconsistent price signals transmitted to producers concerning the market value of carcass characteristics over time; 3) grid revenue per-head variability is consistently higher than dressed weight revenue per-head variability over …
