U.S. Grain
Author: Joseph Halow
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 280
Book Description
This book outlines the steps necessary for shifting agricultural marketing decisions from the private sector to the government. In describing the deleterious effect of political involvement in agriculture and on the overall U.S. trade balance, this text attempts to reconcile past policies with future expectations. The author retraces the steps which led to the agricultural bonanza of the 1970's and the subsequent rapid decline of U.S. agriculture's profitability to the nation in the 1980's. Analysis of U.S. agricultural programs includes thorough discussion of grain exports to the Soviet Union, embargoes and their effects on markets, and the problems of the farmers themselves as they attempt to devine the next phase of U.S. foreign agricultural policy before planting. This book could be used as a guide to U.S. Government offices dealing with agricultural export trade policy, as well as undergraduate public policy and political science seminars on U.S. food policy. Includes comprehensive bibliography.

Handbook of Bioenergy Economics and Policy
Author: Madhu Khanna
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 1441903690
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 435
Book Description
Concerns about energy security, uncertainty about oil prices, declining oil reserves, and global climate change are fueling a shift towards bioenergy as a renewable alternative to fossil fuels. Public policies and private investments around the globe are aiming to increase local capacity to produce biofuels. A key constraint to the expansion of biofuel production is the limited amount of land available to meet the needs for fuel, feed, and food in the coming decades. Large-scale biofuel production raises concerns about food versus fuel tradeoffs, about demands for natural resources such as water, and about potential impacts on environmental quality. The book is organized into five parts. The introductory part provides a context for the emerging economic and policy challenges related to bioenergy and the motivations for biofuels as an energy source. The second part of the handbook includes chapters that examine the implications of expanded production of first generation biofuels for the allocation of land between food and fuel and for food/feed prices and trade in biofuels as well as the potential for technology improvements to mitigate the food vs. fuel competition for land. Chapters in the third part examine the infrastructural and logistical challenges posed by large scale biofuel production and the factors that will influence the location of biorefineries and the mix of feedstocks they use. The fourth part includes chapters that examine the environmental implications of biofuels, their implications for the design of policies and the unintended environmental consequences of existing biofuel policies. The final part presents economic analysis of the market, social welfare, and distributional effects of biofuel policies.
