Abstract

Income maintenance programs such as the negative income tax have been extensively discussed, but thus far little has been written about their impact on farm operators. This paper focuses on the effects of alternative definitions of income, including imputed returns to assets, on the accounting practices of farmers, and on the eligibility of farm families for payments. The influence of income maintenance on decision making of farm operators is analyzed, and attention is called to the need for further study of the consequences of major welfare reforms on the farm economy.
