Decomposing Input Adjustments under Price and Production Uncertainty

Robert G Chambers () and John Quiggin ()

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, 2001, vol. 83, issue 1, pages 20-34

Abstract: A decomposition of input adjustments for stochastic technologies is developed and applied to the case of actuarially fair production insurance. The decomposition consists of a pure-risk effect and an expansion effect which are analogous to the Hicks-Allen decomposition familiar from consumer theory.
