The organization of exchange in the United States agro-biopower industry.
Altman, Ira J.

The organization of exchange in the United States agro-biopower industry. - 156 p.

Adviser: Thomas G. Johnson.

Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of Missouri - Columbia, 2005.

The organization of the biomass exchange is studied using data from a survey of existing biopower generators in, the United States. The choice of exchange mechanism may be a non-technical barrier to the development of biopower from agricultural products such as crop waste, dedicated energy crops and livestock waste. Transaction Cost Economics, one organizational economics theory, is also tested using these survey data to determine if that theoretical perspective may be applied to the development of the agricultural biopower industry. These data are supportive of the theory since some variables are shown to behave as predicted and are statistically significant in regression analysis.

520 $a Applying the theory to the development of the agricultural biopower industry reveals several important features. The organizational, technical, and spatial decisions must be carefully aligned to ensure efficiency of the biomass transaction. Situational analysis of cases involving different business features implies that search, negotiation, coordination, administrative and enforcement costs are all important costs to consider in developing the industry.
