Abstract

This paper identifies major issues in the development of firm level models for use by multiple participants in a regional research project. Included among the issues are the choice of equilibrium analysis framework, measures of risk, modeling scope, optimization versus nonoptimization; status versus dynamics, risk attitudes, farm structure specifications, economic scenarios, and performance measures.
