Abstract: ERS provides economic information on the near-term agricultural outlook and on longrun projections. Here is an overview of efforts to improve such information through comprehensive quantitative models. The various models incorporate intercommodity relationships within agriculture, aggregate farm price and income levels, interactions between the farm and nonfarm economies, natural resources, environmental considerations, and foreign markets.
