Impact of Water Supply Limitations from Federal Decisions in South Texas
Provedor de dados: 31
Autores: Robinson,   John R.C.; Michelsen,   Ari M.; Gollehon,   Noel R.
This study extends and refines a previous model and provides estimates of the economic value of water shortages from shortfalls in Mexican deliveries to the U.S. In the process, we identify and evaluate a range of crop choices, appropriate irrigation technology use, water source substitution, and other mitigation strategies used by farmers to deal with water shortages. The effects of exogenous crop price and yield risk, as well as and other structural considerations are incorporated in deriving the marginal value of irrigation water for reference drought years. Results show that South Texas farmers react to risk by diversifying their crop mix, which in turn has implications for the imputed value of water and soil resources. The derived shadow price of...

Provedor de dados: 31
Autores: Gollehon,   Noel R.; Christensen,   Lee A.; Ribaudo,   Marc; Aillery,   Marcel P.; Agapoff,   Jean; Breneman,   Vincent E.
A Chesapeake Bay Watershed manure management model estimates the minimal regional cost of land applying manure at $110 to $130 million, depending on crop producer's’ willingness to accept manure and the nutrient standard enforced.  Annualized capital costs of existing industrial plants indicate that off-farm options should be considered.

POLICY DIRECTIONS TO MITIGATE WATER-SUPPLY RISK IN IRRIGATED AGRICULTURE:  A FEDERAL PERSPECTIVE
Provedor de dados: 31
Autores: Aillery,   Marcel P.; Gollehon,   Noel R.; Schaible,   Glenn D.; Roberts,   Michael J.; Quinby,   William.
Water reallocation to meet mandated flow requirements and trust responsibilities, established in Federal law and water authority, can result in large uncompensated losses to irrigated agriculture.   This paper discusses the nature and potential cost of water-supply interruptions due to Federal actions, and provides a comparative assessment of alternative risk-mitigation measures.

CONFINED ANIMAL PRODUCTION AND MANURE NUTRIENTS
Provedor de dados: 31
Autores: Gollehon,   Noel R.; Caswell,   Margriet; Ribaudo,   Marc; Kellogg,   Robert L.; Lander,   Charles; Letson,   David.
Using data from the Census of Agriculture on animal inventory and sales, we estimate manure nutrient production on farms with confined livestock. Using reported on-farm production of crops on these same farms, we estimate the nutrient uptake for major field crops and pastureland. This enables us to examine the balance between manure nutrient production and nutrient need measured by crop uptake at a farm level.  Examination at alternative spatial scales, shows that 75 percent of counties in the U.S. have farms that produce more manure nutrients than can be assimilated on the farm of production (excess nitrogen).The vast majority of the counties that produce excess nitrogen have adequate land in the county to spread the manure at agronomic rates. Thus,...

Technical Documentation of the Regional Manure Management Model for the Chesapeake Bay Watershed
Provedor de dados: 31
Autores: Aillery,   Marcel P.; Gollehon,   Noel R.; Breneman,   Vincent E.
The Regional Manure Management Model, developed for the ERS project on "Manure Management for Improved Water Quality," is used to evaluate the cost and feasibility of manure land application as a manure management strategy at the regional level. This model is a nonlinear mathematical programming model of animal manure-nutrient production and distribution applied to the Chesapeake Bay watershed. The model is designed to assess regional costs of manure management, transport, and land application in the Chesapeake Bay watershed, given the existing structure of the animal industry and manure-storage technologies currently in use. Manure-nutrient production is allocated within the basin to minimize costs to the animal sector, subject to land availability and...

Spatial Considerations in Air- and Water-Quality Tradeoffs for Animal Agriculture
Provedor de dados: 31
Autores: Gollehon,   Noel R.; Aillery,   Marcel P.
Total and average per ton costs of land-applying manure demonstrate the importance of spatial factors on the potential effect of policy limits for water and air emissions.  Per ton costs vary with the need to transport greater distances for land application, reflecting the spatial distribution of cropland and animal production.  Costs are estimated with a regional modeling framework, applied to the Chesapeake Bay watershed that integrates GIS-based spatial data within an optimization framework.

Provedor de dados: 31
Autores: Aillery,   Marcel P.; Gollehon,   Noel R.; Ribaudo,   Marc.
A Chesapeake Bay Watershed manure management model estimates the minimal regional net cost of land applying manure at $76 million under a multi-year phosphorus standard, with assumed manure acceptance rate on 60 percent of cropland.  The multi-year standard represents a savings of 17 percent relative to an annual phosphorus standard.

An Economic Assessment of the 1999 Drought: Agricultural Impacts Are Severe Locally, but Limited Nationally
Provedor de dados: 31
Autores: Morehart,   Mitchell J.; Gollehon,   Noel R.; Dismukes,   Robert; Breneman,   Vincent E.; Heimlich,   Ralph E.
While the 1999 drought has had severe financial impacts on agricultural producers in the drought regions, its impact on U.S. agricultural production has been limited. The drought will reduce commodity receipts relative to 1998 by an estimated $1.29 billion. Estimated farm net income losses, including expected yield losses, increases in expenses, and insurance indemnities, will total $1.35 billion, about 3 percent of expected 1999 U.S. net farm income. Drought impacts in areas of the Northeast designated as extreme and severe drought are expected to reduce farmers' net income by nearly $840 million. The regions affected, the crops grown in those regions, the increased use of irrigation, and crop insurance coverage limited the drought's impacts on...

CONFINED ANIMAL PRODUCTION AND MANURE NUTRIENTS
Provedor de dados: 31
Autores: Gollehon,   Noel R.; Caswell,   Margriet; Ribaudo,   Marc; Kellogg,   Robert L.; Lander,   Charles; Letson,   David.
Census of agriculture data were used to estimate manure nutrient production and the capacity of cropland and pastureland to assimilate nutrients. Most farms (78 percent for nitrogen and 69 percent for phosphorus) have adequate land on which it is physically feasible to apply the manure produced onfarm at agronomic rates. (The costs of applying manure at these rates have not been assessed). Even so, manure that is produced on operations that cannot fully apply it to their own land at agronomic rates accounts for 60 percent of the Nation's manure nitrogen and 70 percent of the manure phosphorus. In these cases, most counties with farms that produce "excess" nutrients have adequate crop acres not associated with animal operations, but within the county, on...

Beyond Water-Quality Regulations for CAFOs? Manure Management Costs to Meet Air-Quality Objectives
Provedor de dados: 31
Autores: Aillery,   Marcel P.; Gollehon,   Noel R.
Federal policy on manure management has focused on water-quality protection.  However, animal agriculture is an important source of ammonia-nitrogen and other air emissions, increasing attention on air-quality concerns.  Policies to address air emissions would influence both the costs of meeting water-quality objectives and environmental tradeoffs.  We consider hypothetical policies at a regional level.

ESTIMATING PRODUCER'S SURPLUS WITH THE CENSORED REGRESSION MODEL:  AN APPLICATION TO PRODUCERS AFFECTED BY COLUMBIA RIVER BASIN SALMON RECOVERY
Provedor de dados: 31
Autores: Moore,   Michael R.; Gollehon,   Noel R.; Hellerstein,   Daniel.
Application of the tobit model to estimate economic welfare is transferred from the consumer side to the producer side. Supply functions are estimated for multioutput irrigators in the Pacific Northwest. Empirical procedures are then developed for computing expected producer's surplus from the output supply functions. Confidence intervals for the surplus measures are generated using the Krinsky-Robb method. An experiment predicts decreases in surplus given increases in water pumping cost. The experiment replicates possible increases in hydroelectric prices due to the salmon recovery program in the Columbia-Snake River Basin. Output substitution explains producers' ability to mitigate the effect of the price increases on producer's surplus.

MANURE MANAGEMENT FOR WATER QUALITY COSTS TO ANIMAL FEEDING OPERATIONS OF APPLYING MANURE NUTRIENTS TO LAND
Provedor de dados: 31
Autores: Ribaudo,   Marc; Kaplan,   Jonathan D.; Christensen,   Lee A.; Gollehon,   Noel R.; Johansson,   Robert C.; Breneman,   Vincent E.; Aillery,   Marcel P.; Agapoff,   Jean; Peters,   Mark.
Nutrients from livestock and poultry manure are key sources of water pollution. Ever-growing numbers of animals per farm and per acre have increased the risk of water pollution. New Clean Water Act regulations compel the largest confined animal producers to meet nutrient application standards when applying manure to the land, and USDA encourages all animal feeding operations to do the same. The additional costs for managing manure (such as hauling manure off the farm) have implications for feedgrain producers and consumers as well. This report's farm-level analysis examines on-farm technical choice and producer costs across major U.S. production areas for hauling manure to the minimum amount of land needed to assimilate manure nutrients. A regional...

MANAGING MANURE TO IMPROVE AIR AND WATER QUALITY
Provedor de dados: 31
Autores: Aillery,   Marcel P.; Gollehon,   Noel R.; Johansson,   Robert C.; Kaplan,   Jonathan D.; Key,   Nigel D.; Ribaudo,   Marc.
Animal waste from confined animal feeding operations is a potential source of air and water quality degradation from evaporation of gases, runoff to surface water, and leaching to ground water. This report assesses the potential economic and environmental tradeoffs between water quality policies and air quality policies that require the animal agriculture sector to take potentially costly measures to abate pollution. A farm-level analysis of hog farms estimates the economic and environmental tradeoffs that occur when policies are designed to address pollutant flows to one environmental medium without considering flows to another medium. A national analysis addresses the broader impacts of coordinated (water and air) policies, including long-term structural...

COSTS OF LAND APPLYING MANURE WITH INCREASED OFF-FARM PROCESSING CAPACITY:  A REGIONAL ASSESSMENT
Provedor de dados: 31
Autores: Gollehon,   Noel R.; Aillery,   Marcel P.; Christensen,   Lee A.
Recent policies implemented to protect water-quality encourage improved management of land-applied manure.  The significant potential cost of transport and land application has heightened interest in the off-farm processing of animal waste.  This paper examines the potential for expansion in off-farm processing facilities to contribute to a regional manure solution.
