Probit model results show that location of the farm, farm size, operator age and education, and other ... -
The Estimated Economic Impact of Recombinant Bovine Somatotropin on New York Dairy Farms for the Years 2994 through 1997
Tauer, Loren W., 1951- (AgBioForum, 2001)Data from New York dairy farms for the years 1994 through 1997 were used to estimate whether recombinant bovine Somatotropin (rbST) generated profits for adopters. Results show that the estimated profit impact of rbST, ... -
Impact of Recombinant Bovine Somatotropin on Dairy Farm Cost of Production : Evidence from Multiyear Data
Tauer, Loren W., 1951- (AgBioForum, 2006)New York dairy farm data over the years 1994-2002 were used to estimate the impact of recombinant bovine somatotropin (rbST) use on the cost of producing a hundredweight of milk. Both fixed and random effects models were ... -
The Impact of Recombinant Bovine Somatotropin on Dairy Farm Profits : A Switching Regression Analysis
Tauer, Loren W., 1951- (AgBioForum, 2005)Profit impact from the use of recombinant bovine somatotropin (rbST) on dairy farms was estimated using switching regression, with separate regressions for rbST-using and rbST-nonusing farms. To correct for potential ...
