Alternatively, capital constrained growers can invest in relatively larger facilities with a production contract than as a non-contract grower. Risk averse growers are able to finish hogs under contract profitably with less risk than is possible without a contract. Made available in DSpace on 2015-09-25T20:55:59Z (GMT).
