Abstract: Excerpt from the report: The main objectives of the study were to determine: (1) How farmers who participate in the program differ from non-participants with respect to such factors as age, residence of operators, off-farm employment, farm organization, and resource use; and (2) the effects of the program on crop and livestock production and on use of land, labor, machinery, buildings, and other resources.
