Return Home Farm Policy: An Agenda for Reform by John E. Frydenlund Backgrounder #1524 Now that the U.S. Senate has passed its version of the farm bill, House and Senate conferees will soon begin meeting to resolve relatively minor differences between the two versions. Both the House and Senate bills represent a dramatic departure from the "freedom to farm" concept that was incorporated in the 1996 farm bill, and both bills signal a return to federal control over agriculture production. In addition, while both versions would increase farm subsidies by $73 billion over the next 10 years, the Senate bill front-loads more than 60 percent of the increase in the first five years. The Bush Administration has expressed its general reservations about the policy direction embodied in this legislation but has not threatened a veto. President George W. Bush should send a message to Congress that it must step away from a myopic focus on government support and control in the agriculture industry and instead explore new ideasparticularly those that utilize private-sector solutions that are already available. In the long run, farmers stand to benefit far more from this approach than they do from a continuation of nanny-state programs and government micromanagement. KEEPING REFORM ON TRACK Although the 1996 farm bill failed to eliminate the archaic permanent farm law, it implied that the seven-year transition period from 1996 to 2002 would lead to the eventual termination of agricultural subsidies, which have been both counterproductive and harmful to agricultural trade. Former House Agriculture Committee Chairman Robert F. Smith (R-OR), speaking in opposition to an amendment to reform the sugar program in 1997, argued that the amendment was unnecessary because the sugar program was slated to end along with all other farm programs.

Right-to-farm ordinances protect nurseries A ll across the United States farm ground is under severe pressure from sprawling development. The federal government, under the direction of the Environmental Protection Agency, has come to recognize the importance of planning where growth occurs in America. Going beyond the development debate of growth/no growth, the EPA has come to recognize planning that can meet a number of different development strategies simultaneously. Under the term coined as Smart Growth (1), the EPA has developed the following principles in order to preserve the quality of life in and around cities and counties. Urban Influenced farmland Land near cities and towns is classified as urban-influenced (UI) farmland (2). A case can be made for the importance of farmland closest to our nation's cities and suburban areas. The American farmland Trust (3) reports that 86% of nation's fruits and vegetables, and 63 % of our dairy products, are produced in UI areas. UI farm ground also provides avenues for select-your-own farms, including pumpkins, berries, Christmas trees, and flowers. The rate of farmland loss is accelerating as public policies exaggerate the competitive edge that development has over farming (2).

document.write(''); Environmental Protection Clinic The Yale Environmental Protection Clinic is designed to introduce students to the fields of environmental advocacy and policy-making by exploring a variety of environmental policy questions and the tools environmental professionals use to address them. While the Clinic supplements students' hands-on experience with seminars on environmental law and policy, the core of the program is the work students do for their clients: teams of three to four students work with client organizations on "real-world" projects, with the goal of producing a major work product for the client by the end of the semester. Clinic clients include national environmental groups, think tanks, government agencies, international organizations, and local citizen groups. Projects include legislative drafting, litigation, multiparty negotiation and policy development and focus on topics ranging from environmental justice to sustainable agriculture to climate change. We are not able to post client work product on this site, but the following project descriptions provide a sampling of the kind of work students can undertake through the Clinic. Project: State Policies to Address Global Warming (Spring '04) Client: New York State Dept of Environmental Conservation Students assessed options for investments in greenhouse gas reduction projects and evaluated legal structures for incorporating offsets into a cap-and-trade program for carbon dioxide emissions from power plants in connection with the northeast states' Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative.

It has long fulfilled its twofold function that was associated with the policy targets of the Agricultural Basic Law (BAL). The first function has been income security for every elderly farmer through pension payments. Beneficiaries could be paid the same amount of retirement pension from FPP as the Japanese Employee's Pension Insurance program for 60-64 years old. After 65 years of age, farmers could receive additional pension benefits under the FPP scheme. Otherwise they might obtain only a smaller benefit through the National Pension Payment (NPP) program. The second function is to promote farm restructuring more by encouraging more intergenerational transfer of farm management interests and thus increase the number of large farms. The retirement pension should be paid when the accession to farm management is administratively confirmed. The scheme was designed to give an economic incentive for accelerating more accession to farming by the younger generation. The pension management system was drastically changed in 2001 because FPP was confronting a permanent deficiency in its financial accounting. In addition, the latest reform altered the policy principles and functions of FPP so they would be in policy alignment with the updated Basic Law of Food, Agriculture, and Rural Areas. As a result, the current scheme couldn't entirely provide for the income support of every elderly farmer. It now covers mainly those farm households targeted as rural leaders.

New Zealand Policy Context Starting in 1984, Government support to New Zealand agriculture has been virtually removed. Farm income levels are now entirely dependent on international prices and are therefore, vulnerable to developments in world market, as well as climatic, risks. As a result, they have been increasingly variable, and in recent times low. The market is adjusting in the post-reform era through land transfers and changes in land use, particularly to forestry. However, sustainable agriculture in the New Zealand policy context also means that industry remaining competitive, and being able to operate profitably and sustain that profitability over time. The current policy framework in New Zealand is based on the position that high levels of taxpayer financial assistance are not sustainable as this distorts the signals and incentives to producers, processors and marketers and places an unsustainable burden on other parts of the economy providing the 'cost of support'. This was the premise on which farm subsidies, both on product prices and input costs, were removed in New Zealand over the latter half of the 1980s (MAF, 1992).

Home Page Why New Rules? Get our e-Bulletins Rules Index ... Contact Us During the 1980's farm crisis the idea of a supply management system for agriculture was proposed by Senator Tom Harkin (D-IA) and Rep. Bill Alexander (D-AK). In 1985 they introduced the Farm Policy Reform Act (S.1083). Title I of the Act required the Secretary of Agriculture to conduct referendums (in 1985, 1989, 1993, and 1997) to determine by majority vote if a mandatory supply management program should be in effect for the succeeding four-year program period. If the referendum failed, the Secretary would determine the farm program for the succeeding four-year period. Under the bill's supply management provision, the USDA would establish national marketing quota (for each commodity) for each of the 1986 through 1999 crops based on domestic and export demands, food aid and carryover requirements. A national acreage allotment for each of the 1986 through 1999 crop years would be established, and producers earning more than 50 percent of their gross income from nonfarm sources would be required to set aside an additional ten percent of eligible crop acreage. As acreage allotments are made, marketing certificates (quotas) for each commodity were to be assigned locally. Such certificates are made on the higher of county average yield, or farm yield. Excess production beyond the quota amount would be allowed to be (1) used for on-farm use; (2) stored and marketed in the subsequent year; (3) donated for specified foreign food assistance programs; or (4) sold to the Commodity Credit Corporation (CCC).

He promised to cut taxes, increase military spending, increase social spending, pay down all publicly held debt and balance the budget. Under the budget plan passed by the Senate, the federal budget might return to balance in Fiscal Year 2012, long after Mr. Bush has left office regardless of whether or not he wins reelection.

April 7th 2001 News Top Story Other News News Feature LIVESTOCK - Dairy News Husbandry Features Milk League Supreme Court backs new milk quota regime Three Co Tipperary farmers who brought a test challenge against the new milk quota regulations, including restrictions on the transfer of quotas, failed in their Supreme Court appeal on Friday against the High Court dismissal of their claims. None of the three appellants are milk producers and all have leased their quotas. The five Supreme Court judges found the new regulations could be made by the Minister for Agriculture, Food and Rural Development and did not require an act of the Oireachtas. The judges also decided there had been no infringement of the farmers' property rights. The Chief Justice said he was persuaded the choices of individual EU member states in relation to policy on the milk super levy scheme had been "reduced almost to vanishing point". The appeal was brought by Mr Nicholas Philip (otherwise Martin) Maher, of Mountpleasant, Cashel; Mr Malachy Brett, of Fethard and Ms Rita Ryan who has a small farm in Tipperary. The quota regulations arose out of the EU's concern about the extent of quotas held by persons no longer actively involved in milk production. The Minister introduced regulations (Statutory Instrument 2000) which meant persons such as those taking the test case might either have to resume active production or have their quotas sold for restructuring at a price to be decided by the Minister.
