The 2007 Farm Bill & Beyond: Summary for Policymakers

Daniel Sumner and Bruce Gardner

in Books from American Enterprise Institute

Abstract: The 2007 Farm Bill is hardly small potatoes. Over the past five years, farmers have received an average of $20 billion a year in subsidies and other payments. Is this money really well-spent? Do payments and government controls on agriculture help or hurt American consumers?
