A non-parametric simulation model incorporating price risk determined gross revenue less risk management costs for cow-calf, winter stockering, and retained ownership scenarios for cattle producers in the Southeast. Risk management scenarios simulated hedging with commodity futures and...

A stochastic simulation model is used to generate one thousand cash market prices and yields for corn, soybeans, wheat, cotton, and peanuts. A Target MOTAD model using the stochastic data determined the risk-efficient crop-mix for alternative price and yield expectations. Results suggest...

Returns for soybeans, commodity corn and high oil corn under an export and domestic market buyer's-call contract were simulated. High oil corn is competitive with commodity corn when yield drag is two percent and bundling reduces seed cost. Commodity loan rate is important in reducing high oil...
