combination of mail-in and internet survey methods. There were 3877 peach farms in the top five producing states (California, South Carolina, Georgia, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania) in 2012 ( Vilsack and Clark, 2014 ). Due to budget constraint, we only sent
Zollman, 2000 ). In many cases, however, budget constraints, time limits, transportation logistics, and limited access to qualified nurseries may make scheduling field trips a challenge. Recently, a set of instructional DVDs were produced by horticulture
but does not meet the constraints of a large uniform fetch as defined for Kc ( Doorenbos and Pruitt, 1977 ). The likelihood of a uniform fetch, an expansive extent of uniform vegetation of the same species, in production nurseries is rare. Hence
, cucurbit PM is generally considered one of the most important diseases of cucurbits ( Zitter et al., 1996 ) and poses a serious constraint to the production of pumpkins in Kentucky. Cucurbit PM can affect leaves, petioles, and stems with tissue turning
they were in an actual purchasing situation and reminded to keep their budget constraints in mind. Each product within a choice set was specified as a 2-ounce package of microgreens with varying attributes presented in the form of text describing the
total of 88 participants. The number of participants was subject to our budget constraints, yet previous studies using experimental auctions to elicit consumer preferences for horticultural products have used sample sizes ranging from 74 participants
characterize water-treatment technologies for use in greenhouses and nurseries. However, given budget constraints on experimental research to resolve existing knowledge gaps, it is appropriate to use nonexperimental, but systematic, research designs. The Delphi
understanding how individuals make decisions about spending money and are guided by their preferences and budget constraints with the aim of maximizing their utility ( Jehle and Reny 2011 ; Wooldridge 2012 ). This theory, combined with empirical analyses
arrangements comprising a significant portion of the revenue. However, despite technological advancements, the modern floral industry faces constraints similar to those during antiquity. First, although cut flowers are grown and harvested like produce, they
budgets for conventional field-grown vegetable crops are often formulated with the knowledge that a portion of these inputs may be lost to the environment through leaching, runoff ( Hochmuth, 2000 ; Hochmuth and Hanlon, 1995 ), denitrification, and
