| Using detailed residential housing and wetland location data, we determine relative preferences for proximity to four broad classes of wetlands, as expressed through housing values. Implicit prices for proximity to open-water and scrub-shrub wetlands are relatively higher than those for emergent-vegetation and forested wetlands. |

| Nearly two million acres of Minnesota farmland have been idled under federal Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) contracts. Starting in 1996, these 27,000 contracts will begin to expire. The contracts summarized in this report, those which expire between 1996 and 1998, account for nearly four-fifths of the total state enrollment (Tables 1 and 2, Map 1). This report is largely descriptive: analysis and interpretation of the data presented here are pretty much left to the reader. The first portion of the report provides state-wide CRP summaries. The same information at the county level is presented in Tables 9-15. |

| This report is a summary of the data contained on the farmland sales portion of the Minnesota Land Economics (MLE) web site (http://landeconomics.umn.edu ) as of April 20, 2012. It is formally reissued each Spring, as new sales data become available. The present document consists largely of graphs and tables summarizing sales over the past twenty-two years. It provides averages at the multi-county region and at the statewide levels of aggregation. Individual transaction data are available for downloading and analysis at the MLE web site. An electronic version of the current report in fully navigable portable document format (pdf) is also available: http://landeconomics.umn.edu/mle/readings/Minnesota_Farm_Real_Estate_Sales.pdf. |

| We develop a series of new grass-based budgets for use in FINPACK, a standard farm finance analysis tool. The new budgets are then applied to an evaluation of plausible grass-based systems on three farms in the Northern Tallgrass Prairie region of Minnesota and North Dakota. The farms are used for illustration purposes only. We find no grass-based alternative that financially outperforms current non-grass operations. Nor do any score particularly well under a lender credit rating process that we adapted for this study. Our results suggest caution before one accepts claims that grass-based systems are uniformly feasible and financially desirable. There undoubtedly are individual situations in which such alternatives make financial sense, but their use... |

| To examine the extent to which the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) brings about a reduction in surplus commodity production, I develop a simple model that incorporates the farm-level production effects of entry into the Reserve. The model is used to estimate the reduction in aggregate program crop acreage under two CRP program alternatives: (1) the "base bite," which requires a proportional reduction in a farm's commodity base as a condition of CRP entry (the current law) and (2) no base bite, which for supply control purposes would rely upon a "displacement" of acreage actually available for planting. Data from the first four rounds of CRP bidding permit comparison of the supply control impacts of the alternative provisions. The base bite is shown... |

| This report is a summary of the data contained on the farmland sales portion of the Minnesota Land Economics (MLE) web site (http://www.apec.umn.edu/landeconomics) as of April 29, 2004. It is formally reissued each Spring, as new sales data become available. We no longer distribute a separate farm real estate report in the Minnesota Agricultural Economist (now the Minnesota Applied Economist: http://www.apec.umn.edu/MnApEc). The present document consists largely of graphs and tables summarizing sales over the past fourteen years. It provides averages at the multi-county region and at the statewide levels of aggregation.

| In this paper, we postulate that uncertainties associated with nonpoint source pollution and with certain features of pollutant trading may tend to outweigh the potential benefits of pollutant trading from the standpoint of regulatory agencies and point source dischargers. After identifying several major sources of such uncertainties, we outline a trading scheme for a typical phosphorus-polluted water body in an agricultural watershed. The scheme limits uncertainty while preserving the efficiency-seeking features of trading to effect water quality improvements. |
