An approach to modeling the impact of disturbances in an
agricultural production network is presented. A stochastic model
and its approximate deterministic model for averages over sample
paths of the stochastic system are developed. Simulations,
sensitivity and generalized sensitivity analyses are given.
Finally, it is shown how diseases may be introduced into the
network and corresponding simulations are discussed.
