Book Description
The dairy subtitle of the 2014 Farm Bill was a major departure from previous approaches to directly support income during low margins. Instead, under the new program, farmers have the option to pay for a federally-provided insurance against low income over feed cost margins. Although the new program is in its infancy, this dissertation evaluates the potential costs and supply effects of the new margin support insurance using prices from 2000 to 2012. The program is compared to prior dairy policy. Particular attention is paid to the differences in potential effects of the program in different regions of the U.S. The first chapter evaluates historic milk production response, by region, to periods of low margins. Similar to prior research, the majority of supply response to low margin periods is shown to increase in the western portion of the country and decrease in the East. The second chapter evaluates the program premiums and potential indemnity payments by geographic region under different assumptions of participation. The estimated federal outlays are compared to historic expenditures under the Milk Income Loss Contract, which was the primary income support program under the previous two farm bills. The final chapter of the dissertation attempts to update regional milk supply elasticities with regard to milk prices. The result is basically a finding of no significance,but in this case, this has significant policy ramifications. With very low responsiveness of milk production to milk prices, the historic lack of a short-term corrective mechanism in milk markets continues to be an issue. High levels of farmer participation in the program could push expected federal outlays much higher than anticipated.

Book Description
The U.S. Congress, in the Farm Security and Rural Investment Act of 2002 (the 2002 Act), directed the Secretary of Agriculture to conduct a “comprehensive economic evaluation of the … effects of the various elements of the national dairy policy.” The Act further directed the Secretary to study the effects of (a) terminating Federal milk price support and supply management programs, and (b) allowing State cooperation to manage milk prices and supply. Both studies deal with similar questions that relate to the effects of government policies on economic outcomes. For this reason, the two studies are combined into this single report. This report examines the effects of national dairy policy and its component programs as defined in the 2002 Act on milk and dairy product markets, farm households, nutrition programs, and the rural economy. These programs include: Federal milk marketing orders, the Federal milk price support program, State pricing programs and State-mandated over-order premiums, interstate dairy compacts, direct payments to milk producers, and the dairy export incentive program (DEIP). The report focuses on the following questions: what have been the measurable effects of dairy programs on economic variables—price level and volatility, milk production, and producer revenues? How have these market impacts in turn affected farms, rural economies, and nutrition programs? How might States cooperate to support prices in the absence of a Federal price support program? The standard tools of economic analysis are used to address these questions, but there are also other forces at work that have influenced the dairy sector. Changes in the dairy sector should be considered in a larger context with a longer-run perspective. Thus, the first part of this report answers another, related question: what factors can we identify that have been responsible for changes in the dairy sector?
