Production Incentives from Static Decoupling: Land Use Exclusion Restrictions
研究了基于历史产量的农业补贴通过土地使用限制如何影响当前生产决策，可能导致与直接补贴相当的产出和贸易扭曲。
Abstract Many agricultural support payments are based on past production with restrictions on how land may currently be used. When support payments to field crops are analyzed in a static framework, they do not directly impact current production decisions. However, over time, as relative profits change, these payments affect current output. The payments may keep land in less profitable production of program crops through restrictions prohibiting potentially more profitable endeavors such as cultivating fruits and vegetables. These payments have the potential to lead to production and trade distortions similar in magnitude to the distortions associated with direct production subsidies.
