Research Interests:
My research program spans the fields of agricultural marketing and price, regional impact analysis, agricultural development, and econometrics.
Current projects include the economic impact of the private-sector suppliers of recreational fish and adjusting hypothetical willingness to pay to more
accurately reflect revealed behavior. Future projects will be most excellent.
Past projects include various regional analyses for the golf industry, livestock production, and various international development projects. I should point out that while my picture on the web makes me look friendly, the real me is depicted in the photo hanging in the conference room.
