Recovery requires less production, stronger use
For 25 years, FAPRI has analyzed agricultural markets and policies for Congress and other decision makers
Our approach Provide objective analysis Don’t endorse or oppose policies Address the questions decision makers care
about Make analysis available when it’s needed
2008 Farm Bill work Changes in target prices, loan rates, etc. ACRE program
Biofuel policies (latest—May 2009)
International work WTO-related issues Policy issues in Europe, Korea, Mexico, S.
Africa
November: preliminary world baseline December: DC baseline review January: revised world baselineFebruary: stochastic baseline (500 futures)March: release baseline in DC, MissouriApril-October: policy analysis, model work July or August: baseline update if needed
In response to Congressional request First priority to Congressional Agriculture
Committees (e.g., farm bill work) Requests from other members and staffs
(e.g., recent ethanol policy analysis) As part of grant-funded projects
U.S. agencies (USDA, Dept. of Energy, EPA…) International agencies (OECD, FAO, agencies
in Ireland, UK, S. Africa, Mexico, and S. Korea) And a few on our own initiative
Be as objective and fair as possible We’ve worked with Democrats and Republicans,
House and Senate, aggies and urban members Avoid partisanship, endorsing or opposing
specific policies Know how to be useful
Pay attention to what’s happening on the Hill Deliver results when they’re needed Recognize some important work will never show
up in a public report—phone calls, e-mails matter
Farm markets remain very volatile, but most likely case is that crop prices remain above pre-2007 levels but below 2008 peaks
Future depends on economic recovery, oil markets, weather, and much more
Analysis of policy, market alternatives likely to be of continued interest
