Abstract

Computer simulation models of corn, wheat, cotton, and soybean markets are used to investigate the budgetary and farm income impacts of the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) over the period 1986-2000. Results indicate that the CRP increases farm income and crop prices, and it increases Government outlays, the amount depending on assumptions about the return of land to cultivation after CRP contracts expire.
