| Abstract | dc.description.abstract | This paper contributes with an empirical analysis, using a sample of farms, on
the influence of size on cost behaviour under operational and tactical flexibility.
Results indicate that small farms behave advantageously with respect to biggest
farms in situations of operational and tactical flexibility. On the one hand, the
increase in indirect costs with product diversification is higher in bigger farms
than in smaller. On the other hand, while most farms are flexible enough to avoid
cost stickiness, the biggest face considerable rigidities in downsizing indirect
costs when activity decreases. | en_US |
