Abstract
The Commission on 21st Century Production Agriculture has requested that the Food and Agricultural Policy Research Institute (FAPRI) provide an assessment of two countercyclical payment proposals. The payments are designed to bring total gross income to the major program crops up to a selected target level. The payments are decoupled from production and are distributed among the crops based on the allocation of the recent supplemental packages.
