“…En relación con los test de condiciones extremas (Li et al 2012), el modelo arroja los resultados esperados cuando se le somete a distintas condiciones extremas como caída inesperada de la llegada de turistas, demanda acelerada de suelo urbano construido, sequías extremas, eliminación total del plan de rehabilitación de gavias, o incremento de la cabaña ganadera que pastorea.…”

“…The main components include stocks, flows, auxiliary variables, and relationships, and these components can be used to create a model using a flow chart drawn with computer software. At present, most studies that have applied system dynamics in the field of domestic and foreign tourism have explored the management models of tourism destinations and the dynamic trends of either a case study or the industry as a whole (Kuo, 2009;Jin, 2009;Kang, 2007;Li, Dong, & Li, 2012;Rasmussen, Rasmussen, Reenberg, & Proud, 2012;Sun, 2010;Wang, 2007); however, few studies have investigated recreational farms as research topics. In summary, system dynamics was used in this study as a method and tool for exploring the human resources and various operational aspects within the operating systems of recreational farms and as a support system to help decision-makers use effective technologies for testing and evaluating related policies.…”

The demands of the rural recreational market have increased in recent years. Taiwan's rural area is also a popular travel destination for inbound tourists. Taiwan's recreational farms are the destinations that best represent the rural recreational experience. Taiwan's recreational agriculture association data show that Taiwan had 377 legal recreational farms in the year 2014. However, recreational farms face an area of management difficulty: how to achieve a fixed flow of human resources management. Hence, this study aimed to explore the optimal human resources in recreational farms by using system dynamics theory and modeling the financial, tourism and human resources subsystems as the decision making supports. Vensim 5.2 for Windows (Ventana Systems, Inc., 2012) was used as a research tool to test and verify two recreational farms in Taiwan as empirical cases. The results were used as the basis of the human resources requirements for recreational farm.

“…Rozman et al (2012a, b) introduce the system dynamics model, which shows that the subsidies are the main source of the conversion from conventional to organic farming in Slovenia, however, the subsidies cannot be provided on the level that would complete the conversion. Li et al (2012) simulate the longterm trends of organic agriculture in the province in China, showing the current disadvantages and limits (such as a high methane production and an unsustainable energy structure) that could restrict the future development.…”

Th e paper deals with the dynamic simulation of the possible development scenarios of small farmers. Th e model is based on the offi cial data sources but also on the qualitative research of small farmers. Th e modelling structure refl ects the specifi cs of the examined fi eld and personal and social specifi cs of small farmers. For the purposes of the analysis, the business model describes the value creation in the small and individual farms, thereafter the model is extended into the dynamic simulation model and the selected scenarios of development are simulated. Th e analysis shows the impact of the current setup in the fi eld. Despite the fact that the paper contains the optimistic scenarios, a simple change of parameters leads to an unsustainable situation. Th e pessimistic scenarios grow from the realistic conditions when the parameters refl ect the recent period settings. Th is clearly depicts the infl uence of the weak market position of the farmers and advocates the diversifi cation tendencies.
