farm will have a negative ending cash reserve. Reported values represent the probabilities for 2008 and 2015. 3) P(Real Net Worth Decline) is the probability that the farm will have a loss in real net worth relative to the beginning net worth. Reported values represent the probabilities for losing real net worth from 2008 to 2009 and 2008 to 2015.
