Última The Food Assistance Landscape, FY 2009 Annual Report AgEcon Oliveira, Victor. This report examines trends in USDA’s food and nutrition assistance programs through fiscal 2009. It also discusses a recent ERS report that examines the prevalence, severity, and characteristics of food insecurity in households with children.

Ano: 2010 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/59614 The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, Financial Stress, and Childhood Obesity AgEcon Burgstahler, Rebecca; Gundersen, Craig; Garasky, Steven B.. The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) is the largest nutritional assistance program addressing food insecurity in the United States. Due to the program’s reach, SNAP has been called upon to address other nutrition-related challenges facing low-income Americans, including childhood obesity. This study considers the effect of SNAP participation on child weight outcomes after controlling for household financial stress, an important determinant of child overweight status that disproportionately affects low-income households. Using data from the Survey of Household Finances and Childhood Obesity and instrumental variable methods, we find that SNAP participation is negatively associated with obesity among eligible children.

Ano: 2012 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/123311 Fruit and Vegetable Consumption by Low-Income Americans: Would a Price Reduction Make a Difference? AgEcon Dong, Diansheng; Lin, Biing-Hwan. Americans’ diets, particularly those of low-income households, fall short of Government recommendations in the quantity of fruits and vegetables consumed. Some proposals suggest that a price subsidy for those products would encourage low-income Americans to consume more of them. This study estimated that a 10-percent subsidy would encourage low-income Americans to increase their consumption of fruits by 2.1-5.2 percent and vegetables by 2.1-4.9 percent. The annual cost of such a subsidy for low-income Americans would be about $310 million for fruits and $270 million for vegetables. And most would still not meet Federal dietary recommendations.

Ano: 2009 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/55835 The Effects of the Food Stamp Program on Energy Balance and Obesity AgEcon Parks, Joanna C.; Smith, Aaron D.; Alston, Julian M.. The Food Stamp Program (FSP) administered by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) is the cornerstone of the U.S. federal income and food safety net policy. The FSP has subsidized the food budget for millions of American households for over forty years, spending more than $60 billion per year in recent times. Prior research has demonstrated that women who participate in the FSP are more likely to be overweight or obese than eligible non-participants. This finding raises the concern that the additional income provided by FSP benefits induces participants to eat significantly more calories and gain weight, contributing to the U.S. obesity epidemic. Previous studies of the FSP have yielded mixed results. In this study we develop new conceptual and...
