Short summary
The paper contributes a comparative analysis of the operational value of different forecast products for the agricultural sector. The underlying idea is that forecast accuracy per se might not be the most effective indicator of the goodness of a forecast but the behaviour of the farmers using the forecast should somehow also be taken into consideration and, correspondingly, the benefit generated by the forecast. This paper explores and validates this idea with a model-based analysis.
