A Software Package For Teaching Farm Planning

Abstract

"Finding Your Agricultural Advantage" is a collection of four programs - one to generate case studies, one to do "trial-and-error" solutions, one to display linear programming solutions, and one to maintain case study data files. The four programs can be used together or individually as instructor preferences dictate in teaching farm planning. A step-by-step method for teaching with the software is presented as an example of its use.
