After all the research on agricultural risk to date, the treatment of risk in agricultural research is far from harmonious. Many competing risk models have been proposed. Some new methodologies are largely untested. Some of the leading empirical methodologies in agricultural economic research...

Dual production specifications derived under certainty are typically randomized for econometric purposes with error specifications. This article shows that such approaches can cause integrability conditions to fail. In particular, if errors in input demands represent errors in optimization that...

Numeraire prices that are measured with error create challenges for econometric estimation. A straightforward approach for a model with linear input demands, such as generated from a quadratic normalized profit function, is proposed where the numeraire price is measured with error. Numeraire...
