In addition to updating the traditional material from that text, this book includes the statistical foundations of decision making under risk and uncertainty. Adding to the material covered in Anderson, Dillon, and Hardaker, the text includes material on dynamic decision rules, the arbitrage pricing model, real options theory, and state-contingent production relationships. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Farm management|xDecision making|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh85047224|xMathematical models. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2002007921 650 0 Risk|xMathematical models.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities /subjects/sh2008110813 650 0 Uncertainty|xMathematical models.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2008113073 650 7 Farm management|xDecision making|xMathematical models. |2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/921082 650 7 Farm management|xDecision making.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/921079 650 7 Risk|xMathematical models.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/1098126 650 7 Uncertainty|xMathematical models.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1160835 655 4 Electronic books. 776 08 |iPrint version:|aMoss, Charles B.
