No 283898, 1976 Annual Meeting, August 15-18, State College, Pennsylvania from American Agricultural Economics Association (New Name 2008: Agricultural and Applied Economics Association)

Abstract: This is a particularly appropriate year for review of agricultural economics in relation to public policy. The quadrennial Presidential election heightens our perceptions of major national public policy issues and the governmental process. It is a year of economic recovery and comparative stability, affording an opportunity to reflect upon the turbulent events of the past four years and longer term economic and food policy issues. And it is a year which foreshadows public debate on new farm commodity price legislation.
