Current Duties
My current appointment is Interim Department Head of the Department of Agricultural
Economics. I am responsible for management of the department’s human and financial
resources.
My faculty appointment had changed since my initial appointment in 1983 of 75 percent
research and 25 percent teaching. My appointment for 2005-2006 was about 16 percent research
and 84 percent teaching. Over the years, I have developed an integrated teaching, research, and
professional service program; however the last few years my commitment to the teaching
program has been substantial resulting in a reduction in my research program.
Teaching and Advising Program
My participation in the teaching program has been critical to the Department of
Agricultural Economics. I have provided leadership in developing an agribusiness focus for the
Department that resulted in an undergraduate agribusiness major. The major originally had one
option managed jointly by the Department of Agricultural Economics and the College of
Business Administration. The major has now expanded to six additional options in Agricultural
Economics besides the jointly managed program. For 2005-2006, I taught five undergraduate
courses (two both semesters), served as Co-Chairman of the Curriculum and Assessment
committee for the Department of Agricultural Economics and served as Chairman of the Awards
sub-committee of the Undergraduate Awards and Recruitment Committee. As Co-Chairman my
duties included being Undergraduate Advisor Coordinator and Outcome Assessment Coordinator
for the department.
I taught AGEC 5403, Production Economics each Spring Semester from 1996 to 2005.
AGEC 5403 is a core course for most M.S. graduate students in Agricultural Economics. In
1999, I began to use the Internet to distribute class notes and data. I also introduced the use of the
Maple software package in the class over the last five years.
From the Spring Semester of 1997 to 2005, I taught AGEC 4101 (previously AGEC
4911), Agricultural Economics Seminar. The Department Head used this class to conduct exit
interviews with graduating students. Students wrote a short paper and develop a short power
point presentation on their selves in this course. In addition, they developed personal
management and leadership skills. I also used the class to help collect information for the
department's outcome assessment and provide information for curriculum revisions. The
Department decide to end AGEC 4101 in the Spring of 2005.
Spring Semester 2001, I begin teaching AGEC 3423, Farm and Agribusiness
Management, a new course that combined the old AGEC 3413 Farm and Ranch Management
and AGEC 3313 Introduction to Agribusiness Management courses into a single course. I had
experience teaching both courses previously, so I have had to integrate the material into a single
new course. This course is required of all agricultural economics and agribusiness majors and is
an important service course for students from other departments in the College of Agricultural
Sciences and Natural Resources. I taught this course each Spring and Fall semester from Spring
2001 to Spring 2006. I taught AGEC 3413, Farm and Ranch Management for fifteen Spring
Semesters from 1984 to 1995 and from 1998 to 2000. AGEC 3413 was a core course for many
students in the Department of Agricultural Economics. It also was an important service course
for students from other departments in the College of Agricultural Sciences and Natural
Schatzer-3
Resources. I developed exercises requiring students to use microcomputers to solve farm
management problems. I have high expectations of my students and challenge them. Several
years, I also provided the students an opportunity to participate in a Green Revolution / Exaction
simulation game. In 1999, I began posting my notes and former exams on the Internet for
students to use. I also taught AGEC 3313, Introduction to Agribusiness Management three
semesters. I volunteered to teach AGEC 3313 Fall Semester of 1989, then called Agricultural
Business Management and Finance, and the Fall Semesters of 1995 and 1996 when the instructor
resigned from the department in 1989 and when the instructor went to a 100% extension
appointment in 1995. In 1989, I required students to write case study reports and make oral
presentations. In 1995 and 996, I required the students to do several group case studies and
prepare group projects.
I took over AGEC 3101, Professional Career Development, from Dr. Williams Fall 2003.
This one hour course is for our junior students and helps orientate them to the department’
requirements, job opportunities and career development. I have taught it each Fall semester since
2003.
I took over AGEC 3213, Quantitative Methods in Agricultural Economics, from Dr.
Kletke Spring 2004. I have been following his course notes and lab exercises. I hope to make
some changes in the course in the summer of 2006.
I also taught AGEC 4323, Applied Agribusiness Management Spring Semesters from
1994 to 1997. This course was the capstone course for students majoring in Agribusiness and
students obtaining a farm and management option in Agricultural Economics. In the course, I
helped the students pull together all the material they have obtained from other courses and apply
it to real world situations. I used several cases in the course and required the students to complete
exercises using different quantitative methods. I also helped the students to understand the
importance of developing their own leadership and management styles.
I have received three teaching awards. For my teaching excellence, the Aggie-X Club
voted me the Aggie-X Outstanding Professor in 1989-90 and again in 2003-04. Aggie-X is the
Agricultural Economics undergraduate club. I received the University’s Merrick Foundation
Teaching Award in 1998.
I advise undergraduates each semester and as documented in my research summary I have
advised and served on several graduate student committees. I have advised undergraduates that
major in Agricultural Economics, Agribusiness, and Environmental Science. The number of
official undergraduates varies each semester. However, I have had the largest number of advisees
in the Department, or close to it, for several years. I was Advisor to the Aggie-X Club from 1985
to 1987 and 1993 to 1994. For my advising excellence, the Aggie-X Club voted me the Aggie-X
Outstanding Advisor in 1997-98, 2003-04, 2004-05 and 2005-06. The Agriculture Ambassors
named me the Outstanding Advisor in the College of Agricultural Sciences and Natural
Resources for 2003-04.
From Fall Semester 1989 through Summer Semester 1993, I was in charge of the
Undergraduate Internship program. These responsibilities included working with mentors,
helping students in finding possible internships, and grading of internships.
Dr. Osborn, department head at the time, appointed me Chairman of the Undergraduate:
Curriculum and Assessment Committee Fall Semester 1993. As part of my responsibilities on
this committee, I serve as the Outcome Assessment Coordinator and Coordinator of
Undergraduate Advisors for the Department of Agricultural Economics. Other responsibilities of
Schatzer-4
the committee include suggesting changes in the undergraduate options, courses, course
prerequisites, and instructors. Fall Semester 1998, Dr. Barkema changed the Curriculum and
Assessment Committee duties to include both undergraduate and graduate curriculum issues. Fall
Semester 2000; Dr. Trapp added a co-chair, Dr. Wade Brorsen, to the committee to help handle
graduate curriculum issues.
Research Program
My interdisciplinary research program has emphasized economic issues associated with
horticultural crop production in Oklahoma. I have participated in several experiment station
projects. I have trained several graduate students to do economic research on these projects. I
have actively participated in a regional research project that examines the economics of fruit and
vegetable production and marketing in the United States. I have used these projects to develop an
area of expertise in farm management issues critical to the success of the individual horticultural
producer. As needed to support these activities, I have developed expertise in the supporting
areas of finance and marketing. I have analyzed issues in marketing and finance at the farm and
processing level. I have cooperated and continue to cooperate on research projects and grants
with the faculty from the Departments of Horticulture, Entomology and Plant Pathology, and
Animal Science at Oklahoma State University. I have continued to develop a research program
that examines the economic feasibility of the production of horticultural crops. My current
program focuses on the following areas: (a) perennial crop analysis, (b) production and
marketing of horticultural crops for food, and (c) alternative uses of horticultural crops.
I have participated in grants and contracts directly related to my approved Oklahoma
State University Agricultural Experiment Station projects. Each grant or contract has required the
consideration of the economic feasibility of production or a specific production practice for one
or more horticultural crops in Oklahoma. Since joining the faculty, I have cooperated with other
Division of Agricultural Sciences and Natural Resources faculty to obtain more than $1.5 million
in grants and special project funds to support research and extension efforts related to
horticultural crop production in Oklahoma.
I have supervised a graduate student’s research that examined the economic feasibility of
using a pasture system for ostrich production and compared it to beef cattle production.
Extension Program
While I have had no appointment in Cooperative Extension, I have made many extension
presentations and cooperated on several extension publications. The “Achievement Award” I
received from the Oklahoma Vegetable Association in 1991 and the Extension Publication
Awards I received, with others, in 1986, 1996, and 2003 from the Southern Region American
Society of Horticultural Science shows the quality of my efforts in these areas. I have established
an ongoing transfer of research results to the public that has provided a significant contribution to
the extension programs of the faculty in horticultural crop production.
Professional Service
I have made many contributions to professional organizations, the University, College,
and Department. Over the years, I have refereed articles for the following journals: American
Journal of Agricultural Economics, Journal of the American Society for Horticultural Science,
HortScience, Southern Journal of Agricultural Economics, Journal of Production Agriculture,
Schatzer-5
Agribusiness: An International Journal, Journal of Agribusiness, Journal of Food Distribution
Research, Water Resources Bulletin, International Food and Agribusiness Management Review,
Journal of Vegetable Crop Production, Scientia Agricola, and Review of Agricultural
Economics. I also have served as a reviewer of selected papers for the American and Southern
Agricultural Economics Association.
I was elected as Chairman of Group IV (Social Sciences) of the Graduate Faculty for a
two-year term, 1992 to 1994. As Chairman, I served as a member of the Graduate Faculty
Council. The faculty of the College of Agricultural Sciences and Natural Resources elected me as
their representative to a three-year term on the University's General Education Committee in the
Fall Semester 1993 and reelected me to an additional three-year term in the Fall Semester 1996. I
declined being on the ballet for a third term in 1999. I served as a University President's
appointee on the Faculty Council's Academic Standards and Policy Committee from July 1992 to
June 1995. Fall Semester 1994, I was elected to a two-year term on the Agriculture Faculty
Council by members of the Department of Agricultural Economics. The University President
appointed me to the University Honorary Degree committee for three years, 1992 to 1995. I
served as a University President’s appointee on the Athletic Council for July 1995 through June
1999 and served as Chairman of the Athletic Council’s Academic Integrity committee for 1995
through 1998. In the Fall Semester 1996 the University Provost asked me to serve on a university
wide Extension Course Review Committee. During the Fall Semester 1998, Associate Dean
Hummer appointed me to fulfill the remaining two years of a term on the University General
Education Council to represent the College of Agricultural Sciences and Natural Resources. In
2000, I began a full three-year term. During the Fall Semester 1999, the Chairman of the Faculty
Council appointed me to a two-year term as the Chairman of the University’s Campus Review
Committee. The Campus Review Committee hears appeals related to the extracurricular use of
university facilities, areas, or media for the purpose of expression. I served on one of the
subcommittees preparing materials for the university’s North Central Accreditation review to be
conducted in the Fall of 2005.
In addition to the departmental committees supporting the teaching program, I have
served on several other departmental committees. I have served as Chairman of two and been a
member of many of the faculty search committees for the Department. In 1991, the Farm
Management Work Group in the Department elected me as their representative to the CSRS
Program Review Planning committee. I was the only member of the committee that was not at
the Professor rank. In the Spring Semester 1996, the faculty in the Department elected me as one
of four members of a new Faculty Advisory Committee within the Department. In the Fall
Semester 1998, the faculty in the Department elected me to a five-year term on the Departmental
Reappointment, Promotion, and Tenure committee and I served as Chairman my last year, 20022003.
