Ownership of Farm Trucks for Hauling Grain: An Application of Multivariate Logit Analysis

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, 1975, vol. 57, issue 2, 302-308

Abstract: In calculating the cost of hauling grain with respect to a change in hauling distance, the nature of the truck maintained by a farmer is usually assumed to remain the same. Logit analysis is applied to estimate the relationship between the size and age of grain trucks and the distance to an elevator. The estimated probability of a farmer maintaining a larger and/or a newer truck increases as hauling distance becomes longer.
