The model developed in this study will be used to analyze participation in government commodity programs under three assumptions: (1) price variability accounting for the variation in returns; (2) price and yield variability with yield variation based on variability in state average yields; and (3) price and yield variability with yield variation based on variability in adjusted state average yields to reflect above average management |
