Government Programs and Adoption of Conservation Tillage Practices on Nonirrigated Wheat Farms
通过全农场模拟分析，研究在1981年和1985年农业法案下，农户对不同保护性耕作方式（少耕、组合耕、免耕）的偏好，以及参与政府项目与否的选择，发现风险规避型农户偏好组合耕加项目参与。
A whole‐farm simulation analysis is used to investigate producer preferences for adoption of separate tillage practices (minimum‐till, combination‐till, or no‐till) under provisions of both the 1981 and 1985 farm bills. An analysis of preference for participation or nonparticipation in government programs under both farm bills is also considered. For risk‐averse producers, a combination‐tillage practice with program participation is found to dominate (as measured by stochastic dominance) the other strategies considered under both the 1981 and 1985 provisions.
