Abstract: The effects of tax policies on aggregate agricultural investment are examined. Results from this analysis suggest that tax policies are effective in promoting agricultural investment. Nearly 20 percent of net investment in agricultural equipment during the period 1956 through 1978 is attributed to tax policy. From 1956 to 1978, tax policy has stimulated, in real dollars, over $5 billion in net investment in equipment and in excess of $1 billion in structures.
