| Dairy producers operating in the U.S. have been protected against market price variability by the federal price support program for over 35 years. During the late 1970s tax outlays to operate this program grew at a rapid rate. While many authors have addressed the economic implications of the existing dairy price support program, few have explicitly considered the relationship between risk aversion, capital investment, milk production, and support price policy in this process. This paper considers the role of uncertainty and risk-averse behavior and suggests that these elements are crucial to an economic analysis of the current program and future dairy policy issues. |

| This paper outlines the major trends experienced by Spain's dairy sector in recent decades. It offers tentative explanations of the factors accounting for these observed trends. Implications for the nation's dairy farm sector from entry into the EEC are examined. The paper concludes with some considerations on the possibilities to carry out the necessary technical and structural reforms needed to achieve a viable dairy sector before full application of the mechanisms for the Community's dairy policy takes place. |

| The principal objective of this study is to determine the financial impacts of changing feed procurement strategies for a specified southeastern Minnesota dairy farm. Growing all feed for the dairy herd on the farm itself, currently the most prominent mode of procurement, is compared to: (1) producing all forage and purchasing all concentrate feeds from others, and (2) purchasing all feeds from others. The effect of herd size on the comparisons is considered to determine if size has a bearing on the chosen method of feed procurement. |
