比较了两种作物保险和两种灾害援助方案与政府商品计划的组合效果，通过随机占优分析农场净收益分布，发现灾害援助方案优于其他方案，且个人作物保险优于区域作物保险。
Abstract This study compares the effectiveness of two crop insurance and two disaster assistance program designs used in conjunction with a government commodity program and a linked crop insurance/government commodity program design. Stochastic dominance analysis of farm‐level net return distributions is used to select the preferred design(s). The results indicate that the disaster assistance programs are preferred over the alternatives. The results also suggest that individual crop insurance is preferred to area crop insurance. A subsidy is required for risk‐averse managers to prefer area crop insurance to individual crop insurance.
