Abstract: The present study surveys the significant body of research on the topic generated by the Regional Research Committee for Financing Agriculture in a Changing Environment: Macro, Market, Policy, and Management Issues, and its predecessors. For this purpose, risk management strategies are classified into two main categories, namely, ﾓwithin-firmﾔ strategies and ﾓrisk-sharingﾔ strategies. Given the literature examined here and the recent developments that have occurred in the U.S. agricultural sector, the present study identifies a number of research topics worthy of attention for future research in the field.
