Multidimensional goals of beef and dairy producers: an inter‐industry comparison

Author

  • Aydin Basarir
  • Jeffrey M. Gillespie

Abstract

The relative importance of seven goals were elicited for Louisiana beef and dairy producers using the fuzzy pair‐wise comparison method. Beef producers were more concerned with maintaining and conserving land, while dairy producers were more concerned with financial goals such as maximizing profit and avoiding years of loss or low profit.
