The Role of Risk in the Decision to Produce Post-Decoupling - A Stochastic Budgeting Example [PDF]
Under the Mac Sharry and Agenda 2000 reforms, direct payments comprised a significant portion of farmers' income in the EU. Farmers had to engage in production to receive these payments but the payments were relatively risk-free and therefore risk may ...

How cost-effective are direct payments to organic farms for achieving environmental policy targets? [PDF]
, 2011 Since 1993, the Swiss federal agricultural policy has been providing financial support for organic farming via area payments. Like other voluntary agri-environmental measures (AEM), these payments are intended as incentives for farmers to comply with ...
