RISK IN U.S. AGRICULTURE: NEW CHALLENGES AND NEW APPROACHES

Michael Boehlje

No 28614, Staff Papers from Purdue University, Department of Agricultural Economics

Abstract: Dramatic changes are occurring in the agricultural sector - changes which will result in agricultural industries having many of the characteristics of manufacturing industries. The rapidly changing business climate is creating a new agriculture with new risks. And many of these risks require new approaches and different perspectives to adequately assess and manage them. The new risks will create both challenges and opportunities for farm and agribusinesses and those who finance them.
