search from AgEcon. http://agecon.lib.umn.edu, Faculty Paper 97-4, 12 pages; Adobe Acrobat PDF 84K bytes, This survey of 100 economic analysts in agriculture, outside of government and academia, assesses the changing
public-private balance in information services in agriculture. Its objectives were to: (1)contact front-line private- sector analysts who handle economic issues in agriculture and ask them about the data and information they most value and why, (2) experiment with measurement instruments to segment and describe information attributes that users value; and (3) assess the interest of front- line analysts in the changing public-private balance in information provision. The results provide a list of information services used by analysts, descriptive responses on attributes that contribute to value- added, and statistical analysis relating respondent characteristics to the use of information from the U.S. Department of Agriculture.

Notes:
6 pages., Authors from the Center for Commercial Agriculture, Purdue University, discuss the adoption of precision agriculture technologies. Findings of cited research among farmers indicated that the average net benefit was almost $90 per acre, and the benefit cost ratio averaged 9.7 to 1. "These results suggest a much higher payoff of precision farming than previous studies. This higher payoff is a result of the whole-farm system benefits of the interactions among individual tools and technologies which result in a new way of farming."

Findings suggest that the contribution of agricultural extension services to India's food production can be claimed to the extent of 64.20 percent especially in the Punjab where this study was conducted with 500 farmers. Agricultural information services accounted for 8.59 percent of impact (increased farm production) on 60.17 percent of farmers. Knowledge gains through publicity and training camps accounted for 8.75 percent of impact on 61.24 percent of farmers.
"The analysis highlights the efficiency gains that can come from locally decentralized delivery systems with incentive structures based on largely private provision, although in most poorer countries extension services will remain publicly funded."

13 pages., Paper presented at the Southern Agricultural Economics Association annual meeting, Mobile, Alabama, February 4-7, 2017., Researchers analyzed the market of high fructose corn syrup (HFCS) in the United States and its linkages with the soft drink market. Results showed that soft drinks are the main driver behind the growing demand for HFCS. Also, negative news on HFCS had a negative effect on the growth of demand for soft drinks. However, per capita advertising on soft drinks had a positive effect on the growth of demand for soft drinks and more than offset the effect of negative news.

Notes:
5 pages., Online from FMI Foundation., This report summarizes findings of an online survey distributed to 2,000 U.S. egg/chicken consumers with demographics representing the U.S. population. Findings indicated that "price is a significant driver for the majority of consumers, that consumer response is sensitive to information provided about cage-free production practices, and that willingness-to-pay for cage-free eggs changes in the presence of other label attributes."
