Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The dairy subtitle of the 2014 Farm Bill was a major departure from previous approaches to directly support income during low margins. Instead, under the new program, farmers have the option to pay for a federally-provided insurance against low income over feed cost margins. Although the new program is in its infancy, this dissertation evaluates the potential costs and supply effects of the new margin support insurance using prices from 2000 to 2012. The program is compared to prior dairy policy. Particular attention is paid to the differences in potential effects of the program in different regions of the U.S. The first chapter evaluates historic milk production response, by region, to periods of low margins. Similar to prior research, the majority of supply response to low margin periods is shown to increase in the western portion of the country and decrease in the East. The second chapter evaluates the program premiums and potential indemnity payments by geographic region under different assumptions of participation. The estimated federal outlays are compared to historic expenditures under the Milk Income Loss Contract, which was the primary income support program under the previous two farm bills. The final chapter of the dissertation attempts to update regional milk supply elasticities with regard to milk prices. The result is basically a finding of no significance,but in this case, this has significant policy ramifications. With very low responsiveness of milk production to milk prices, the historic lack of a short-term corrective mechanism in milk markets continues to be an issue. High levels of farmer participation in the program could push expected federal outlays much higher than anticipated.

Download or read book Local Food Systems Concepts Impacts and Issues written by Steve Martinez and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 2010-11 with total page 87 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This comprehensive overview of local food systems explores alternative definitions of local food, estimates market size and reach, describes the characteristics of local consumers and producers, and examines early indications of the economic and health impacts of local food systems. Defining ¿local¿ based on marketing arrangements, such as farmers selling directly to consumers at regional farmers¿ markets or to schools, is well recognized. Statistics suggest that local food markets account for a small, but growing, share of U.S. agricultural production. For smaller farms, direct marketing to consumers accounts for a higher percentage of their sales than for larger farms. Charts and tables.
Download or read book The Rice Crisis written by David Dawe and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-07-26 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The recent escalation of world food prices – particularly for cereals - prompted mass public indignation and demonstrations in many countries, from the price of tortilla flour in Mexico to that of rice in the Philippines and pasta in Italy. The crisis has important implications for future government trade and food security policies, as countries re-evaluate their reliance on potentially more volatile world markets to augment domestic supplies of staple foods. This book examines how government policies caused and responded to soaring world prices in the particular case of rice, which is the world's most important source of calories for the poor. Comparable case studies of policy reactions in different countries, principally across Asia, but also including the USA, provide the understanding necessary to evaluate the impact of trade policy on the food security of poor farmers and consumers. They also provide important insights into the concerns of developing countries that are relevant for future international trade negotiations in key agricultural commodities. As a result, more appropriate policies can be put in place to ensure more stable food supplies in the future. Published with the Food and Agriculture (FAO) Organization of the United Nations
