Review of Marketing and Agricultural Economics, 1990, vol. 58, issue 01, 13

Abstract: In this paper a description is provided of the development and use of a target-MOTAD model for use in consultative work with farmers who are under financial pressure. The analysis of downside risk and introduction of a trade-off between financial and business risks are key features of this model that make it especially applicable to such situations.
