Grid Pricing Versus Average Pricing For Fed Cattle: Where Is The Incentive, Scott Fausti, Bashir Qasmi Apr 2000

Grid Pricing Versus Average Pricing For Fed Cattle: Where Is The Incentive, Scott Fausti, Bashir Qasmi

Economics Staff Paper Series (1969 - 2017)

A weekly comparative marketing study of above-average and below-average quality slaughter cattle was conducted over a 154 week time period (Jan 1997 to Dec 1999). Two data sets containing carcass information on 1500 head of fed cattle were randomly selected from a data set containing carcass information on 2590 steers. Weekly average price per cwt. was calculated for both pens using two different pricing systems: a) the dressed weight pricing system; and b) the Agricultural Marketing Service grid pricing system. The empirical evidence indicates that over the 154 week period: a) the above-average quality carcass data set received a higher …


The Change Of Employment Structure In China's Urban Areas, Feng Xu Apr 2000

The Change Of Employment Structure In China's Urban Areas, Feng Xu

Economics Staff Paper Series (1969 - 2017)

The convening of the Third Plenum of the Chinese Communist Party's Eleventh Congress in late 1978 signaled the beginning of China's reform process. Since then, China has realized significant development in its economic and sociopolitical areas. The Chinese government implemented a gradual reform strategy to revitalize the Chinese economy. Step by step, the government granted greater autonomy to the enterprises and rural households to raise productivity. At the same time, China gradually steered its former centralized planning system toward a market-oriented direction. By introducing the market mechanism into its economy, China modified its development path and moved toward establishing a …

Implications Of “Freedom To Farm” For Crop System Diversity In The Western Corn Belt And Northern Great Plains, Thomas Dobbs, Linda Dumke Oct 1999

Implications Of “Freedom To Farm” For Crop System Diversity In The Western Corn Belt And Northern Great Plains, Thomas Dobbs, Linda Dumke

Economics Staff Paper Series (1969 - 2017)

The Federal Agricultural Improvement and Reform Act (FAIR) Act of 1996, popularly known as "Freedom to Farm", represented a fundamental shift in the primary policy mechanism for supporting farm incomes in the United States (U.S.). Crop-specific "deficiency payments" were replaced by "production flexibility contract payments", scheduled to run through the year 2002 and, presumably, then terminate. The total amount available for contract payments nationwide started at $5.6 billion in fiscal year (FY) 1996, was to reach $5.8 billion in FY 1998, and was to decline to $4 billion in FY2002 (ERS, 1996, p. 1). Allocations to each contract farm are …

Comparison Of Organic And Conventional Crop Prices: 1995 To 1997, Thomas L. Dobbs, Lisa M. Carr Apr 1998

Comparison Of Organic And Conventional Crop Prices: 1995 To 1997, Thomas L. Dobbs, Lisa M. Carr

Economics Pamphlet Series (1985-2016)

Organic industry sales by United State (US) natural product distributors have been growing at more than 20 percent annually during the 1990s. Demand growth for certified organic agricultural commodities has been strong both in the us and abroad. For example, Japan's demand for organically grown us soybeans has been especially strong in recent years. This growth in demand, together with growing concerns about the profitability and ecological sustainability of more "conventional" farming systems in some areas, is causing new interest in organic agriculture. Therefore, as part of our sustainable agriculture research program in the Economics Department at South Dakota State …
