Abstract

A non-parametric simulation model incorporating price risk determined gross revenue less risk management costs for cow-calf, winter stockering, and retained ownership scenarios for cattle producers in the Southeast. Risk management scenarios simulated hedging with commodity futures and purchasing at-the-money put options at alternative dates prior to the expected sales date.
