Abstract: Cluster analysis was used to identify five distinct buyer segments for expendable input purchases for U.S. crop and livestock commercial producers. A multinomial logit model was used to predict segment membership based on demographic, behavioral, and business management factors. Results provide important information for agricultural input suppliers.
