Risk is present in all decisions, though often its assessment is skewed to the negative effects. This paper presents material on the sources of risk in agriculture, procedures for managing two types of risks (operational and strategic) and the interaction of time and risk.
Farm enterprise analysis is a term that has traditionally been used to describe the process of determining costs associated with farm business enterprises and enterprise profitability. A key challenge to those who would know their costs has been the lack of guidance on cost accounting principles and the application of those principles to agriculture. However, that recently changed with the publication of the Farm Financial Standards Council’s Management Accounting Principles for Agricultural Producers, which has led to questions about the usefulness of enterprise analysis. The differences between the two approaches to determining costs for farm business enterprises are discussed as they relate to the usefulness of the output to managers for decision making.
Development teams often speak about the need to satisfy the customer and to meet their requirements. But exactly who is the customer, how do they determine their requirements, and how do these differ from user requirements?

And if not, who's to blame when the product meets the requirements of the customer, but not the user?.
