Abstract

This study determines the effect of government payments on real agricultural asset values using a Bayesian vector autoregression. By examining the statistical significance of past government payments to agriculture, and average and historical effects of innovations in government payments to agriculture, this study finds increases in government payments to agriculture decreased real asset values slightly in the 1980s.
