An empirical model, based on the Theory of Planned Behaviour, was developed to test the hypothesis that differences in farmers goals, objectives and attitudes are a determinant of strategic and entrepreneurial behaviour and will, therefore, result in differences in farm size. The theory states that a person s behaviour results from his/her goals and intentions, attitudes, perceived behavioural ...

This challenge has to take into account its ecological effects since the dairy and livestock sectors are clearly pointed out as human activities which contribute significantly to environmental deterioration. Therefore, livestock activity models have to include desirable and undesirable outputs simultaneously...
