Abstract: Sprouting of wheat due to untimely rains is a frequent occurrence in major wheat-producing areas throughout the world including the United States. This paper examines the local, regional, national, and international effects on supply and demand of incidence of sprouting under different institutional arrangements for controlling entry of sprouted wheat into food markets. The USDA Swopsim model is used to examine the international effects of various levels of sprouting among major suppliers.
