Dunaway, Tarrah M. "Farm Financial Performance of Kentucky Farms." UKnowledge, 2013. http://uknowledge.uky.edu/agecon_etds/13.

Abstract:

This study examines farm financial performance of Kentucky farms using Kentucky Farm Business Management data from 1998-2010. Logit models are used to estimate the likelihood of farm characteristics affecting whether financial ratios fall into critical zones or not. The results show that large farms in terms of total gross returns and total assets are less likely to experience repayment capacity problems. Total gross returns significantly affect all five financial measures. These findings will help farmers and lenders understand what factors influence farm financial performance. Profitability

Abstract:

The Canadian supply managed dairy sector is likely to face more competitive pressure from challenges through the World Trade Organization (WTO) and the changing global trade environment. Therefore, it is highly prudent for Canadian dairy producers to focus their concern on their level of competitiveness and how to improve it. This study investigated the competitiveness of Ontario dairy sector based on a sample of farm level data with a Box-Cox transformed econometric cost model. The data were gathered by the Ontario Dairy Farm Accounting Project, for the years 2005, 2006, and 2007. The impacts

Abstract:

Nel tentativo di rispondere alle richieste della società per lo sviluppo sostenibile, i sistemi agricoli di tutto il mondo devono affrontare sfide ambientali, tecniche ed economiche. I raccolti irregolari, i prezzi fluttuanti delle materie prime e l'impatto delle attività agricole sull'ambiente sono preoccupazioni crescenti. Le tendenze demografiche effettive e i maggiori costi energetici potrebbero complicare ulteriormente lo scenario nel prossimo futuro.

Globally, natural wetlands are under threat from water resource development reflecting the need to support a growing population. In the Border Rivers Catchment in Queensland, Australia, a large irrigation industry coupled with a highly variable flow regime has necessitated the building of large on-farm water storages and often associated destruction or isolation of their natural counterparts. With the decline in abundance of natural wetlands, the presence of these storages on the floodplain has raised the question of their suitability as alternative aquatic habitat.

Abstract:

In attempting to control the power output of a wind farm, it is first necessary to smooth the power fluctuations due to wind turbulence. This is accomplished by spatial smoothing, whereby the high frequency power components of a single wind turbine generator (WTG) is reduced by a factor of N-1/2, where N is the number of WTGs in the farm. For this reason the first part of the thesis is concerned with developing a model of smoothing in a wind farm and justifying it mathematically.<br>After spatial smoothing, the wind farm output still contains low frequency fluctuations.

These individual turbine wakes combine to form a farm wake that can travel a long distance.

Balancing P helps prevent further accumulation of P in farm soils through routine applications of manure, which over time contributes to surface water quality issues.

This thesis deals with the analysis of switching transients in large offshore wind farms. Switching transient is of great importance in electrical power systems in general, not least in offshore wind farms.

These transmission systems are very different from traditional onshore networks.

The research focuses on three areas: the effect of the farm on currents, mixing and stratification, and the dissipation of wave energy. Measurements are also made of the forces on long-line anchor ropes, and a limited investigation is made of phytoplankton depletion. The second approach is the use
