Genetic Engineering and Risk in Varietal Selection of Potatoes
通过案例研究，分析农场管理者是否采用转基因马铃薯品种的决策，探讨价格与生产风险如何影响供应链各环节的决策。
Abstract The objective of this case study is to examine the farm management decision of whether to adopt a new, genetically engineered potato variety. We describe the potato supply chain from seed production to final consumer products and explore how price and production risk interact to influence decision making at each link in that chain. We provide extensive supplemental material as well, including a teaching note with assignment and/or discussion questions, an introduction to and application of stakeholder theory, and a tool that assists students in calculating expected and simulated actual returns from their choice of potato variety.
