No 284207, 1978 Annual Meeting, August 6-9, Blacksburg, Virginia from American Agricultural Economics Association (New Name 2008: Agricultural and Applied Economics Association)

Abstract: Strategy implies an overall plan to attain a given set of objectives. By comparison, tactics imply the specifics of the step by step activities in following the plan. This paper discusses some of the issues involved in the selection of appropriate strategies to gain control of the resources necessary to operate a viable farm business. Obviously, no given set of strategies is correct for all beginning farmers. Consequently, this paper deals with choices between alternative strategies.
