Meat Goat Enterprise Efficiency Analysis in the Southeastern United States
Meat goat enterprise efficiency was estimated using an input distance function (IDF) by applying stochastic production frontier techniques for the southeastern U.S. region. We found increasing returns to scale and scope economies for southeastern U.S. meat goat enterprises. Mean technical efficiency was 0.81. Our results suggest southeastern U.S. meat goat enterprises can be scale efficient if ...

The copyright of individual parts of the supplement might differ from the CC-BY 3.0 licence. The nephelometer RH sensors were calibrated by placing the sensors in a sealed container above aqueous saturated salt solutions at known temperatures for an accurate prediction of equilibrium RH (Greenspan, 1977). More than 3hrs were allowed for each salt solution to reach water vapor saturation. Partic...
متن کاملWater resources and land use and cover in a humid region: the southeastern United States.
It is widely recognized that forest and water resources are intricately linked. Globally, changes in forest cover to accommodate agriculture and urban development introduce additional challenges for water management. The U.S. Southeast typifies this global trend as predictions of land-use change and population growth suggest increased pressure on water resources in coming years. Close attention...
متن کاملWoody energy crops in the southeastern United States: Two centuries of practitioner experience
Forest industry experts were consulted on the potential for hardwood tree species to serve as feedstock for bioenergy in the southeastern United States. Hardwoods are of interest for bioenergy because of desirable physical qualities, genetic research advances, and growth potential. Yet little data is available regarding potential productivity and costs. This paper describes required operations ...
