Michigan Food Stamp Program: A Partial Analysis of Performance

Paul E. Nelson

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, 1972, vol. 54, issue 1, 51-59

Abstract: Models were developed and applied to explain the sources of flow of participants into the Michigan Food Stamp Program and to determine if the program influenced participants in their choice of store for purchasing food with their stamps. Subsidiary questions considered were the determination of the contribution to total sales tax receipts of participating counties which might be attributed to purchases where payments were made with food stamps and the extent to which the food stamp program might have determined where participants purchased their groceries.
