Limited Access to Conservation: Limited- Resource Farmer Participation in the Conservation Security Program in the Southeast AgEcon
Bergtold, Jason S.; Molnar, Joseph J..
The paper examines the joint adoption of conservation tillage, crop rotations, and soil testing by small and limited-resource farmers in the Southeast. The objectives are to determine the potential eligibility of small farmers for the Conservation Security Program, examine socioeconomic factors affecting adoption, and assess the interdependence between adopting different conservation practices. Results indicate that conservation management, ethnicity, and farm characteristics affect practice adoption. Of the producers surveyed in the study, 7% meet Conservation Security Program eligibility requirements, while the other 93% have less than a 20% likelihood of adopting the needed practices to qualify.

Valuing the Option to Switch to Organic Farming: An Application to U.S. Corn and Soybeans AgEcon
Wossink, Ada; Kuminoff, Nicolai V..
Based on option value theory, we develop a theoretical model to assess the dollar compensation required for the conversion to organic farming. Our empirical model is a switching regression model with two regimes and we use county level data on organic and conventional corn and soybean production in the U.S. for the application. Assuming an interest rate of 10 percent, a conventional corn-soybean grower would need to receive a one-time payment of $315 per acre to compensate for the conversion cost and an additional $1,088 per acre to cover the long run higher production and market risks. The sum of these two values equals an annual payment of $228 per acre for a 10 year contact. The results are discussed in the context of the recently introduced...

Time for Change in U.S. Farm Policy: Fundamental Reform Emphasizing Institutions Based on Agriculture's 'Multifunctionality'? AgEcon
Dobbs, Thomas L..
In this article, the author first traces the evolution of political economy perspectives since U.S. farm policy as we know it today was first established in the 1930s. He then discusses the preconditions for a change in the settled beliefs of citizens and policy makers about what U.S. farm policy should look like in the future. The article contains the author’s suggestions for farm policy reform based on a “sustainable agriculture vision” that is also compatible with a multifunctionality view of agriculture. Multifunctionality has been the basis of recent reforms of the European Union’s Common Agricultural Policy.
Tipo: Working or Discussion Paper Palavras-chave: Farm policy; Multifunctionality; Conservation Security Program; European Union; Common Agricultural Policy; World Trade Organization; Agri-environmental programs; U.S. farm bill; Agricultural and Food Policy.
