<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:2.4pt;text-align:justify'><span lang=EN-GB style='mso-ansi-language:EN-GB'>The use of mathematical programming models is strongly related to the decision making situation of a farmer. Farmers must make decisions about the production plan. The decisions are not independent from physical or financial constraints. Traditionally, farmers relied on intuition, experience or their neighbour’s actions. Using formal methods like mathematical programming models can enhance the farmers profits, at least when the production program becomes more complex. Those mathematical programming models predict quite accurately the behaviour of a representative farmer. This predictive “power” makes those representative farm models useful for policy analysis (Hazell &amp; Norton, 1986).<o:p></o:p></span></p>

The farmer has to set the level of four production activities that produce four commodities. The objective function is to maximize the expected total gross margin. But at the same time the resource constraints must hold. In particular, at maximum 200 ha of land are available for each production activity and 10,000 hours of labour. Each production activity has the same requirement to the land. This means, one ha of land produces one unit of the commodity. The production activities need different amounts of labour. For example, production activity 4 needs 87 hours of labour to produce one unit of commodity four. This activity has also the greatest expected gross margin of 516 per unit. The combination of the production activities that maximizes the total gross margin and that does not violate the constraints has to be find.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:2.4pt;text-align:justify'><span lang=EN-GB style='mso-ansi-language:EN-GB'>We can see that not all production activities are part of the production problem. But in reality we observe that farmers also use production activities that seem to be less profitable. The linear programming model obviously does not consider real farmer’s behaviour and produces overspecialisation. There can be several reasons why farmers use less profitable production activities. One the one hand there are governmental rules or production activity rotation requirements that force the farmer to set up a less profitable production plan. This could be handled by additional constraints. Further reasons for this behaviour can be the risk aversion of the farmer or some costs that the farmer faces for some production activities that cannot be observed and with that not be implemented with additional constraints. Additionally, implementing more constraints to the linear programming model will increase the problem of overspecialisation.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

The solution of this optimization problem reveals that only the resource of land is totally exhausted. One should remember that in the linear programming model solution both resources are totally exhausted. In this case, the marginal activity is x1 and the preferred activities are x2, x3 and x4. Therefore, we only have dual values for x2, x3 and x4 and with that; we have only three out of four diagonal elements larger than zero to specify our new objective function. </span><!–[if supportFields]><span lang=EN-GB style='mso-ansi-language:EN-GB'><span style='mso-element:field-begin'></span><span style='mso-spacerun:yes'> </span>REF _Ref390354601 \h <span style='mso-spacerun:yes'> </span>\* MERGEFORMAT <span style='mso-element:field-separator'></span></span><![endif]–><span lang=EN-US style='mso-ansi-language:EN-US'>Table <span style='mso-no-proof: yes'>3</span></span><span lang=EN-GB style='mso-ansi-language:EN-GB'><!–[if gte mso 9]><xml> <w:data>08D0C9EA79F9BACE118C8200AA004BA90B02000000080000000E0000005F005200650066003300390030003300350034003600300031000000</w:data> </xml><![endif]–></span><!–[if supportFields]><span lang=EN-GB style='mso-ansi-language:EN-GB'><span style='mso-element:field-end'></span></span><![endif]–><span lang=EN-GB style='mso-ansi-language:EN-GB'> depicts the parameters of the objective function <span class=GramE>of </span></span><!–[if supportFields]><span lang=EN-GB style='mso-ansi-language:EN-GB'><span style='mso-element:field-begin'></span><span style='mso-spacerun:yes'> </span>GOTOBUTTON ZEqnNum923545<span style='mso-spacerun:yes'>  </span>\* MERGEFORMAT <span style='mso-element:field-begin'></span><span style='mso-spacerun:yes'> </span>REF ZEqnNum923545 \* Charformat \! \* MERGEFORMAT <span style='mso-element:field-separator'></span>(1.9)<span style='mso-element:field-end'></span></span><![endif]–><!–[if supportFields]><span lang=EN-GB style='mso-ansi-language:EN-GB'><span style='mso-element:field-end'></span></span><![endif]–><span lang=EN-GB style='mso-ansi-language:EN-GB'>.<a style='mso-footnote-id:ftn7' href=“#_ftn7” name=“_ftnref7” title=“”><span class=MsoFootnoteReference><span style='mso-special-character:footnote'><![if !supportFootnotes]><span class=MsoFootnoteReference><span lang=EN-GB style='font-size:11.0pt;line-height: 115%;font-family:“Calibri”,sans-serif;mso-ascii-theme-font:minor-latin; mso-fareast-font-family:Calibri;mso-fareast-theme-font:minor-latin;mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;mso-bidi-font-family:“Times New Roman”;mso-bidi-theme-font:minor-bidi; mso-ansi-language:EN-GB;mso-fareast-language:EN-US;mso-bidi-language:AR-SA'>[7]</span></span><![endif]></span></span></a> <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<h3 style='text-align:justify'><span lang=EN-GB style='mso-ansi-language:EN-GB'>Conclusions of simulation<o:p></o:p></span></h3>

<p class=MsoNormal style='text-align:justify'><span lang=EN-GB style='mso-ansi-language:EN-GB'>The simulation application shows very clear the differences between the linear and the positive mathematical programming approaches. The reaction of the linear programming model to price changes shows erratic adaptions of the production programme induced by price changes. It takes a while until the production programme changes when the model is optimized. These changes are also very strong. This means that between the second and third price scenario the production programme differs completely and the fourth price scenario induce a production plan with only one production activity. This behaviour seems very unlikely in reality.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal style='text-align:justify'><span lang=EN-GB style='mso-ansi-language:EN-GB'>The first new objective function (</span><!–[if supportFields]><span lang=EN-GB style='mso-ansi-language:EN-GB'><span style='mso-element:field-begin'></span> GOTOBUTTON ZEqnNum923545<span style='mso-spacerun:yes'>  </span>\* MERGEFORMAT <span style='mso-element:field-begin'></span><span style='mso-spacerun:yes'> </span>REF ZEqnNum923545 \* Charformat \! \* MERGEFORMAT <span style='mso-element:field-separator'></span>(1.9)<span style='mso-element:field-end'></span></span><![endif]–><!–[if supportFields]><span lang=EN-GB style='mso-ansi-language:EN-GB'><span style='mso-element:field-end'></span></span><![endif]–><span lang=EN-GB style='mso-ansi-language:EN-GB'>) of the positive mathematical programming approach shows a smoother reaction to price changes compared to the linear programming model. But it can be seen that the adaption of the production programme is still relatively erratic. But the reaction to price changes seems to be much more likely than in the linear programming model.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal style='text-align:justify'><span lang=EN-GB style='mso-ansi-language:EN-GB'>The second new objective function (</span><!–[if supportFields]><span lang=EN-GB style='mso-ansi-language:EN-GB'><span style='mso-element:field-begin'></span> GOTOBUTTON ZEqnNum279523<span style='mso-spacerun:yes'>  </span>\* MERGEFORMAT <span style='mso-element:field-begin'></span><span style='mso-spacerun:yes'> </span>REF ZEqnNum279523 \* Charformat \! \* MERGEFORMAT <span style='mso-element:field-separator'></span>(1.11)<span style='mso-element: field-end'></span></span><![endif]–><!–[if supportFields]><span lang=EN-GB style='mso-ansi-language:EN-GB'><span style='mso-element:field-end'></span></span><![endif]–><span lang=EN-GB style='mso-ansi-language:EN-GB'>) shows the most economically sophisticated reaction to price changes compared to the other simulated models. The adaption of the production plan induced by price changes is very smooth and is much more realistic. There is no overspecialisation and overreaction like in the other two models.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<h2 style='text-align:justify'><span lang=EN-GB style='mso-ansi-language:EN-GB'>Conclusion<o:p></o:p></span></h2>

<p class=MsoNormal style='text-align:justify'><span lang=EN-GB style='mso-ansi-language:EN-GB'>This paper presents the structure of a simple linear farm production model and the extension based on the positive mathematical programming approach to be able to produce more realistic production plans when it comes to profit maximization. The positive mathematical programming approach calibrates a programming model to observed production behaviour. This is achieved with calibration constraints and the dual values of the calibration constraints are used to specify a new objective function that reflects observed farm behaviour that cannot be captured with additional constraints. These new objective functions capture a lot of possible <span class=SpellE>mis</span>-specifications in linear programming models regarding technology, risk behaviour or other non-linear constraints.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal style='text-align:justify'><span lang=EN-GB style='mso-ansi-language:EN-GB'>The new objective functions can contain several specifications of cost functions. There a many ways to specify these functions and each of them imply different behaviour to changing economic circumstances. Additionally to the specifications shown in this paper there are others as well. The average-cost-approach (Heckelei, 2002) or the use of exogenous supply elasticities (Heckelei, 2002; empirically applied by Helming et al., 2001) are some of them, which will elaborated in the CAPRI training course in Seville. You can also have a closer look at them in the Excel file sheet “PMP2” and “PMP4” as well as in the GAMS file models “Howitt_12” and “Elasticities1”, respectively.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal style='text-align:justify'><span lang=EN-GB style='mso-ansi-language:EN-GB'>The procedures presented to specify the objective functions are not unproblematic. As these procedures capture the observed behaviour, a change in economic incentives of the farmer(s) over time inducing other behaviour is not observed and must come from other sources. Other shortcomings of these approaches of positive mathematical programming models can be found in the literature (see Heckelei (2002) for an overview).<o:p></o:p></span></p>

This problem can be transformed into a minimization problem (dual model), in which land and labour use has to be minimized while the total gross margins of each activity are constrained to have a certain minimum. The maximum value of the objective function of the primal model is always the same like the value of the objective function of the dual model.
