Temporary Programs, Lasting Questions: Ad Hoc Assistance in the U.S. Farm Safety Net
ABSTRACT Large ad hoc assistance programs have returned to U.S. farm policy since 2017, operating alongside a more developed safety net built around federally subsidized crop insurance, Title I commodity programs, and standing disaster assistance. This paper reviews the renewed use of ad hoc assistance, documents its recent scale using USDA data, and ...

Low Participation and Risk Reduction Potential of Supplemental Crop Insurance in the United States
ABSTRACT Federally subsidized crop insurance is a cornerstone of U.S. farm risk management, yet policies with the greatest share of participation only trigger indemnities after losses exceed 15%. Supplemental insurance was introduced to cover part of this deductible, but participation remains largely unchanged.

Implementation of rapid cycle recurrent genomic selection for forage yield in perennial ryegrass
Opportunities exist to accelerate genetic gain in forage breeding using genome-wide selection approaches. In this study, we evaluated rapid cycle recurrent genomic selection (GS) as a means of improving genetic gain for value of annual forage yield.

Integrating Perennial Groundcover in Corn and Soybean Acres: Impacts on U.S. Agriculture
ABSTRACT Sustainable agricultural practices such as cover cropping can improve soil health, water quality, and carbon sequestration, yet U.S. adoption remains limited due to economic and operational barriers. We evaluate market and economic impacts of integrating perennial groundcover into U.S.
