Abstract

"Objectives of the study: The overall purposes of the study were two-fold. First, to describe and evaluate several comparative forward planning techniques currently in use or in the developmental stage. Second, to conceptualize control data needed from an individual farming operation for budgeting farm plans with any, or all, of the three new planning techniques described in this study, and to develop and test transmittal forms designed to acquire this information. A brief history of comparative farm planning procedures used in Missouri, and a review of other budgeting techniques preceded the fulfillment of these objectives. More specifically, the objectives of this study were as follows: 1. To describe, for comparative purposes, the block budgeting and linear programming techniques currently used in Missouri. 2. To describe and evaluate a revised hand budgeting procedure and the tentative plan for a computerized farm planning system to be developed at the University of Missouri. 3. To conceptualize control data needed to budget plans with the revised budgeting process or the computerized farm planning system, and develop transmittal forms to acquire this data. 4. To test the revised budgeting process, using the control information forms, on a selected case study farm."--Page 7.
