Extract

Accurate estimation of the responsiveness of agricultural commodity supplies is vitally important. Government policy negotiations rely on supply estimates in predicting both commodity and intercommodity effects of changing programs and in anticipating their consequent social benefits and costs. Individual farmers and agribusiness firms need them and associated price predictions in making investment and production decisions.
