Abstract

An aggregate acreage supply model for the Canadian prairies is estimated assuming that farmers base short-run acreage decisions on the ex ante rational expectation and variance of per-hectare revenue. To account for the effects of government intervention, a structural model of the Western Grains Stabilization Program is incorporated into the estimation framework. Results indicate the Program contributed to modest increases in cropped acreage between 1976 and 1990.
