Abstract

Survey evidence from U.S. organic farmers is evaluated to identify the factors influencing adoption of farm management strategies to mitigate the impact of key production constraints. A multilevel count data model is specified for the number of frequently used management strategies adopted by organic farmers facing pest control problems.
