Scenario with Higher Oil Prices
• Assume oil prices are $10/barrel higher
than projected
• Margins on ethanol plants increase
• New incentive to invest in added capacity
• Major hurdle will be felt at 14 – 15 billion
gallons due to E-10 saturation
• Drop in ethanol price will eventually
encourage increase in flex-fuel cars

Current Farm Support
• Three main programs
– Direct Payment Program
– Counter-cyclical Payment Program
– Marketing Loan Program
• Direct payments are fixed; counter-cyclical
and marketing loan payments vary with
price

Farm Bill Timing
• Debate will pick up this spring
– Commodity groups presented their proposals to the
House yesterday
• Optimistic timeline: Farm bill will be passed and
signed this summer, in time for winter wheat
• Both Ag. Committee chairmen (Harkin,
Peterson) have stated they will pass a new farm
bill, not an extension
– Rep. Peterson has sounded more extension oriented
in recent reports
Farm Bill Budget
• Budget determined by Congress, but based on
projections of spending for current farm bill
• With crop prices projected to remain high,
current farm support program cost are projected
to be low
• This doesn’t leave much room for farm bill
changes
Farm Bill Proposals
• There are many proposals out there
–
–
–
–
–
USDA
National Corn Growers Association
American Soybean Association
National Association of Wheat Growers
American Farmland Trust
• Can be divided into two camps
– Modify current structure
– Move to revenue-based farm support
Wheat Proposal
• Higher target price
– Wheat: $5.29/bu., up $1.37
• Higher direct payment rate
– Wheat: $1.19/bu., up $0.67
• No change on loan rate
• No specifics on other crops
Wheat Proposal
• Proposal would more than double direct
payments
• Counter-cyclical payments would trigger at
prices below $4.10/bu.
– Currently triggered at $3.40/bu.
• Counter-cyclical payment rate would max at
$1.35/bu.
– Current max of $0.65/bu.
Soybean Proposal
• Higher target prices
– Higher of current target price or 130% of 2000-2004
Olympic average of season-average prices
• Higher loan rates
– Higher of current loan rate or 95% of 2000-2004
Olympic average of season-average prices
• No change on direct payments

Corn Proposal
• Revenue-based support program
– County-level (Revenue Counter-Cyclical
Program)
• Marketing loans changed to recourse
loans (means farmers could not forfeit
crop as payment for loan)
• No change on direct payments
Revenue Counter-Cyclical Program
• Somewhat like current counter-cyclical program
• Revenue guarantee = Percentage*County trend
yield*Projected price
• Actual county revenue = County yield*National price
• Payments made when actual county revenue is below
revenue guarantee
• May be integrated with crop insurance
American Farmland Trust Proposal
• Similar to National Corn Growers’ Proposal
– Revenue-based counter-cyclical program
• Revenue guarantee = Percentage*National trend
yield*Projected price
• Actual revenue = National yield*National price
• Payments made when actual revenue is below revenue
guarantee
• Planned integration with crop insurance
– Premiums and indemnities reduced by payments from revenue
counter-cyclical program
Why Switch to Revenue?
• Critics of the current farm bill point to two main
factors
– Continuing need for disaster assistance
– Possible overcompensation from price-based
programs
• Example: 2004 for corn, record corn yields, 3rd highest corn
crop value, large corn government payments
• Targeting revenue, instead of price, can address
these factors
USDA Proposal
• Set loan rate at minimum of loan rates in Housepassed version of 2002 farm bill or 85% of 5year Olympic average prices
• Change marketing loan program from daily price
settings to monthly price settings
• Increase direct payment rates
• Change counter-cyclical program to be revenuebased

USDA’s Revenue Counter-Cyclical
Program
• Revenue guarantee = 2002-2006 National Olympic
average yield*Effective target price
– Effective target price = Target price – Direct payment rate
• Actual revenue = National yield*Max(Season-average
price, National loan rate)
• Payments made when actual revenue is below revenue
guarantee
• Pays on base acres and yields, not planted acres and
actual yields
Corn Example
• 2002-2006 National Olympic average yield = 146.4 bu./acre
• Effective target price = $2.35/bu.
• Target revenue = $344.04/acre
• National yield = 130 bu./acre
• Season-average price = $2.30/bu.
• Actual revenue = $299.00/acre
• Farm program yield = 114.3 bu./acre
• Current program payment = $0.05/bu.
– ($2.35 - $2.30)
• Proposed program payment = $0.394/bu.
– (($344.04 - $299.00)/114.3)
The Next Farm Bill?
• May look like some of these proposals
– As time proceeds, the odds increase for packages
that look like the wheat and soybean proposals
• Congress usually blazes its own trail
– USDA proposals do not carry significant weight in
Congress
• Cost will be a major consideration
