Web Delivery of a Monte Carlo Simulation Model: The Base and Yield Analyzer Experience

James Richardson () and Joe Outlaw

Journal of Agricultural and Applied Economics, 2005, vol. 37, issue 2, 8

Abstract: The provision for producers to update base acres and payment yields in the 2002 farm bill afforded an opportunity to test whether it was feasible to deliver a complex simulation model directly to producers. A Monte Carlo simulation model for assessing the economic impacts of the alternative base and yield options on individual farms was developed and made available to producers via the World Wide Web. The experiences and challenges from this collaborative extension and research effort are described, as well as the issues educators might consider before delivering complex software to a national audience via the Web.
