Questions and instructions
Literal question
Assume you have two varieties of a crop. Variety A is a familiar variety, and has a constant yield of 40 sacks, regardless of rainfall conditions. Variety B is a new variety of improved quality, but riskier. When there is good rainfall, variety B yields 80 sacks; in poor rainfall, variety B yields 20 sacks. Assuming that rainfall has a 50/50 chance of being good or bad… What proportion of your land would you allocate to Variety B?
