This paper is an outline only of a Ph.D. thesis submitted to the University of Nottingham. The paper proposes a socio‐economic model of farm production with special emphasis placed on the role of management: formulates an econometric model, to represent the socio‐economic model, in which the degree of managerial efficiency appears as a variable, and suggests means of interpretation of the econometric model to aid farm planning at the individual farm level.
