Abstract

We have had a microcomputer in Agricultural Economics at the University of Missouri for three and one-half years. The micro is used for both teaching and research. Our experiences have been in the area of farm management and finance teaching. The courses we teach are populated with juniors and seniors. We have had assignments on the micro in ag finance two semesters, in farm business analysis two semesters and in farm planning one semester. We started with five programs written to be as user-oriented
