Wheat acreage response in Oregon and Washington

Creator:: Moe, Debra K.
Abstract:: National farm legislation seeks to moderate the conditions of low farm incomes and commodity price instability. Homogeneity of producer response is generally assumed in national models of aggregate commodity supply. Differing conditions of soil, climate, production systems, costs of production, markets, etc., could cause disparate acreage responses to the commodity...
