Abstract

Landwirtschaftliche Betriebe sehen sich u. a. aufgrund fort-schreitender Spezialisierung, der Liberalisierung der Weltagrar-märkte sowie den Folgen des globalen Klimawandels steigenden Risiken ausgesetzt. Fragen des betrieblichen Risikomanagements zur Sicherung von Liquidität und Rentabilität gewinnen daher zu-nehmend an Bedeutung. In der agrarökonomischen Literatur fin-den sich verschiedene wissenschaftliche Beiträge, die sich vor allem mit dem Umgang, der Handhabung und der Analyse von Ri-siken beschäftigen. Die Einstellungen und das Verhalten von Landwirten in Bezug auf Risiken sind jedoch bisher nur vereinzelt analysiert worden. Vor diesem Hintergrund untersucht der vorlie-gende Beitrag auf der Grundlage einer Befragung von 236 land-wirtschaftlichen Betrieben aus einer verhaltenswissenschaftlichen Perspektive die Risikoneigung und das Risikoverhalten von Milch-erzeugern. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass unter den befragten Be-triebsleitern verschiedene Risikotypen existieren, die sich hin-sichtlich ihres Risikoverhaltens, der Betriebsleiterpersönlichkeit und der Strategiewahl voneinander unterscheiden.
