Protection Motivation Theory and Farmers' Participation in Futures Markets: Evidence From Germany
Agribusiness, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study examines why German farmers show limited adoption of commodity futures contracts despite substantial price volatility, applying Protection Motivation Theory (PMT) to understand the cognitive processes driving participation decisions in futures markets. Survey data from 303 German farmers collected in 2024 were analyzed using Partial
