Dear acquaintances,
I am trying to estimate production risk in agriculture, in that I want to see the difference between the position of actual risk (have to estimate from secondary data) and farmer's realized risk (derived from production function).
Here I have a problem in estimating actual risk, I can't find the right procedure to estimate it from secondary data. The data will be on a number of unfavorable events in an year, type of damage, location ID. etc. Can anyone please help me to find right material to refer to?
Thank You.
hello gayathri, you just visit the website of International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI) you will find more works on estimation risk function on agriculture.
Dearest Yasodha, attached is a paper on Environment, Technology, and the Social Articulation of Risk in West African Agriculture. this will give you some clue.
Regards,
Banson
Thank you Mr.Damodaran Kuppusamy and Kwamina Ewur Banson. thanks for your help.

dear Yasodha review the following references
I hope they are useful
