FAPRI Examination of Farm Bill Alternatives
分析了1995年农业法案的三种替代方案（无项目、营销贷款、收入保障），比较了它们在收入提升和风险分担方面的差异，对农业政策制定者和研究者有参考价值。
This paper analyzes three program alternatives for the 1995 Farm Bill. The alternatives--no program, marketing loan, and revenue assurance--represent ''corner'' scenarios because their program emphases are based on different sets of philosophies about current farm problems, the future of production agriculture in the United States, and the evolution of rural communities. Across the three scenarios, the safety net configuration, especially income enhancement and risk sharing, shows considerable variation.
