• POLICY

Слайд 3

POLICY
POLICY IS A COURSE OF ACTION OR GUIDING PRINCIPLE PURSUED BY

THE GOVERNMENT.
IT INFLUENCES OR DETERMINES THE ACTIONS AND DECISIONS OF GOVERNMENT.
ECONOMIC POLICY INVOLVES PRINCIPLES OR ACTIONS RELATED TO THE MANAGEMENT OF THE NATIONAL ECONOMY.
FOR EXAMPLE, FREE TRADE IN INTERNATIONAL MARKETS IS AN ECONOMIC POLICY. AN ADMINISTRATION THAT EMBRACES A FREE-TRADE POLICY IS OPPOSED TO RESTRICTIONS ON PRODUCT IMPORTS AND TO SUBSIDIES FOR EXPORT. IT ACTIVELY PURSUES INTERNATIONAL ACTIONS THAT WILL REDUCE BARRIERS TO TRADE.

Слайд 4

AGRICULTURE AND RURAL DEVELOPMENT (RD) POLICY/1
AGRICULTURE AND RD POLICY INVOLVES THE

PRINCIPLES THAT GUIDE GOVERNMENT INVOLVEMENT IN THE PRODUCTION;
THE RESOURCES UTILIZED IN PRODUCTION;
THE MARKETING AND CONSUMPTION OF FOOD;
THE CONDITIONS UNDER WHICH PEOPLE LIVE IN RURAL AREA.
IT IS AN ECONOMIC POLICY AFFECTING PRODUCTION, MARKETING, AND CONSUMPTION

Слайд 5

PRODUCTION IS DEFINED BROADLY ENOUGH TO INCLUDE THE RESOURCES USED IN

THE PRODUCTION PROCESS.
MARKETING INCLUDES BOTH THE DOMESTIC AND INTERNATIONAL ASPECTS OF THE AGRICULTURAL AND RURAL ECONOMY.
CONSUMPTION ENCOMPASSES THE RETAIL PRICE, DISTRIBUTION, NUTRITION, AND SAFETY ASPECTS OF FOOD.

AGRICULTURE AND RURAL DEVELOPMENT (RD) POLICY/2

Слайд 6

POLICY POSITIONS
POLICY POSITIONS ARE DERIVED FROM THE INTERACTION OF FACTS, BELIEFS, VALUES,

AND GOALS THAT ARE HELD BY INDIVIDUALS (FIGURE 1).

Слайд 7

FACTS
A FACT IS SOMETHING KNOWN WITH CERTAINTY. FACTS DESCRIBE WHAT IS.

IF IT CAN BE OBJECTIVELY VERIFIED, RATIONAL PEOPLE WILL TEND TO AGREE ON A FACT.
FACTS ARE MORE NEBULOUS IN SOCIAL SCIENCES SUCH AS ECONOMICS.
THE DEFINITION OF FARM INCOME IS AN EXAMPLE.
WHEN COMPARING INCOMES OF FARMERS AND NON FARMERS, SHOULD FARM INCOME INCLUDE INCOME EARNED FROM AN OFF-FARM JOB?
SHOULD IT INCLUDE CHANGES IN THE VALUE OF THE FARMER'S LAND AND OTHER ASSETS?
CAUSAL RELATIONSHIPS IN SOCIAL SCIENCES ARE LESS PRECISE, LESS MEASURABLE, LESS READILY AGREED UPON, AND ALMOST ALWAYS SUBJECT TO QUALIFICATION.
FOR EXAMPLE, ECONOMISTS DISAGREE OVER WHETHER GOVERNMENT SUPPORT OF FARM PRICES AND INCOMES AIDS THE SURVIVAL OF THE FAMILY FARM OR HASTENS ITS DEMISE. THEY ALSO DISAGREE OVER WHETHER THE INHERITANCE TAX EXEMPTION HELPS TO PRESERVE THE FAMILY FARM FROM GENERATION8 TO GENERATION, SIMPLY ATTRACTS OUTSIDE INVESTORS, OR BOTH.

Слайд 8

IT DOES MEAN THAT A NEED EXISTS TO IDENTIFY, ANALYZE, WEIGH,

AND EVALUATE ECONOMIC FACTS, RELATIONSHIPS, AND IMPACTS.
DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVES ON FACTS NEED TO BE UNDERSTOOD AND EVALUATED IN ANALYZING A POLICY ISSUE. IN ADDITION, FACTUAL KNOWLEDGE IS IMPORTANT TO OBJECTIVITY IN MAKING POLICY DECISIONS. THUS, RESEARCH AND EDUCATION REGARDING FACTS AND RELATIONSHIPS ARE VERY IMPORTANT TO THE POLICY PROCESS.

RESEARCH AND EDUCATION REGARDING FACTS AND RELATIONSHIPS

Слайд 9

BELIEFS
BELIEFS DESCRIBE WHAT PEOPLE THINK IN REALITY.
A BELIEF INVOLVES MENTAL

CONVICTION, ACCEPTANCE, CONFIDENCE, OR FAITH THAT A PROPOSITION IS TRUE. BELIEFS ARE NOT DEPENDENT ON THE INTRINSIC, OBJECTIVE TRUTH OF THE PROPOSITION.
THERE ARE TRUE BELIEFS, PARTIALLY TRUE BELIEFS, AND FALSE BELIEFS.
BELIEFS MAY BE BASED ON FACT, PARTIALLY BASED ON FACT, OR HAVE NO BASIS IN FACT. IT IS GENERALLY POSSIBLE TO SORT OUT BELIEFS THAT HAVE A FACTUAL BASIS FROM THOSE THAT DO NOT.

Слайд 10

BELIEF/2
MANY POLICY DISAGREEMENTS ARISE WHEN BELIEFS ARE BASED ONLY PARTIALLY ON

FACTS. SUCH BELIEFS ARE NOT ONLY A SOURCE OF DISAGREEMENT; THEY CAN ALSO BE DECEPTIVE.
POLICY DISAGREEMENTS FREQUENTLY HAVE THEIR ROOTS IN MYTHOLOGY OR NOTIONS THAT ARE BASED MORE ON TRADITION, VALUES, OR CONVENIENCE THAN ON FACT.
FOR EXAMPLE, THE NOTION THAT RECESSIONS OR DEPRESSIONS IN AGRICULTURE LEAD TO RECESSIONS OR DEPRESSIONS IN THE OVERALL ECONOMY. REALITY SUGGESTS THAT AGRICULTURE‘S IMPACT ON THE ECONOMY IS NO GREATER THAN ITS SHARE OF OVERALL ECONOMIC ACTIVITY.

Слайд 11

VALES
THE CONCEPTIONS OF WHAT SHOULD BE. THEY PROVIDE AN IMAGE OF

WHAT IS GOOD AND RIGHT AND THUS SPECIFY THAT SOME THINGS ARE BETTER THAN OTHERS.
THEY INDICATE WHAT IS DESIRABLE, PROVIDE JUSTIFICATION FOR PROPOSED OR ACTUAL BEHAVIOR.
VALUES ARE INFLUENCED BY BELIEFS AND BY FACTS. VALUES ALSO INFLUENCE BELIEFS.
FOR EXAMPLE, FARMERS VALUE INDIVIDUAL INITIATIVE. THIS VALUE ARISES IN PART FROM THE BELIEF THAT INDIVIDUALS ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THEIR OWN FATE THROUGH THEIR OWN INITIATIVE OR LACK THEREOF. THUS, FARMERS FREQUENTLY BELIEVE THAT MANY PEOPLE RECEIVING PUBLIC ASSISTANCE COULD EARN A LIVING IF THEY WERE WILLING TO WORK.

Слайд 12

AGRARIANISM: THE AGRICULTURAL CREED BY PAARLBERG
FARMERS ARE GOOD CITIZENS, AND A

HIGH PERCENTAGE OF THE POPULATION SHOULD BE ON FARMS.
FARMING IS NOT ONLY A BUSINESS BUT A WAY OF LIFE.
FARMING SHOULD BE A FAMILY ENTERPRISE.
THE LAND SHOULD BE OWNED BY THE PERSON WHO TILLS IT.
IT IS GOOD TO MAKE TWO BLADES OF GRASS GROW WHERE ONE GREW BEFORE.
ANYONE WHO WANTS TO FARM SHOULD BE ABLE TO DO SO.
A FARMER SHOULD BE HIS OWN BOSS.
DON PAARLBERG, AMERICAN FARM POLICY (NEW YORK: JOHN WILEY & SONS, INC., 1964)

Слайд 13

VALUES HELD IN HIGH ESTEEM BY FARMERS/1
IN THE STUDIES WAS SUGGEST

VALUES HELD IN HIGH ESTEEM BY FARMERS INCLUDE:
QUALITY EDUCATION IS VIEWED AS THE MEANS TO OCCUPATIONAL ACHIEVEMENT AND SUCCESS. TECHNOLOGY, BEING A PRODUCT OF EDUCATION AND RESEARCH, HAS TRADITIONALLY BEEN LOOKED UPON FAVORABLY BY FARMERS AND RANCHERS.
WORK AND PROFICIENCY IN ONE'S JOB IS A KEY TO SUCCESS. THE WORK ETHIC IS GENERALLY BELIEVED TO BE HELD IN STRONGER ESTEEM BY FARMERS THAN BY URBAN PEOPLE.

Слайд 14

VALUES HELD IN HIGH ESTEEM BY FARMERS/2
PURITAN ETHICAL STANDARDS ARE STRONGER

IN RURAL AREA. FARMERS ARE, IN GENERAL, MORE RELIGIOUS AND EXPRESS GREATER OPPOSITION TO DIVORCE, PREMARITAL SEX, ABORTION, AND CONSUMPTION OF ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES.
CONSERVATION HAS ALWAYS BEEN A MAJOR CONCERN OF FARMERS BECAUSE OF THEIR TIES TO THE SOIL.
PROPERTY RIGHTS ASSOCIATED WITH LAND AND WATER ARE MORE SACRED THAN THOSE ASSOCIATED WITH OTHER FORMS OF PROPERTY OR BUSINESS OPERATIONS. PROPERTY RIGHTS SEEM TO BE MORE IMPORTANT TO FARMERS THAN TO OTHER BUSINESSPEOPLE.
PERSONAL FREEDOM, PATRIOTISM, AND SUPPORT OF THE DEMOCRATIC SYSTEM ARE STRONGLY HELD VALUES THAT ARE CONSISTENT WITH THE AGRARIAN IDEAL.
Position of agriculture, ASU 15

Слайд 15

GOALS /1
GOALS ARE DESIRED ULTIMATE END RESULTS OR OBJECTIVES.
A GOAL IS

THE PURPOSE TOWARD WHICH AN ENDEAVOR IS DIRECTED.
GOALS ARE LONG TERM IN NATURE. THE INABILITY OF GROUPS OF INDIVIDUALS TO ACHIEVE THEIR GOALS MAY LEAD TO VISIBLE DISSATISFACTION, AGITATION, AND EVENTUAL TURNING TO GOVERNMENT FOR ASSISTANCE IN GOAL ACHIEVEMENT.

Слайд 16

GOALS /2
THE CHOICE OF GOALS IS INFLUENCED BY A PERSON'S VALUES

AND BELIEFS.
WHETHER THE INABILITY TO ACHIEVE A GOAL BECOMES A PUBLIC ISSUE DEPENDS ON THE IMPORTANCE ATTACHED TO IT, THE INFLUENCE OF THE GROUP IDENTIFYING WITH THE GOAL, AND THE EXTENT TO WHICH THE GOAL IS NOT BEING ACHIEVED UNDER CURRENT GOVERNMENT AND PRIVATE INITIATIVES.

Слайд 17

GOALS /3
FARMERS HOLD A WIDE VARIETY OF GOALS. SOME MORE IMPORTANT

ONES INCLUDE:

SELF-PRESERVATION AND SURVIVAL ARE GOALS OF EVERY HUMAN BEING.
RAISING THE LEVEL OF LIVING HAS TRADITIONALLY BEEN A GOAL OF FARMING AND PUBLIC
POLICY TOWARD FARMING.
OWNERSHIP OF FARMLAND AND THE RELATED PRIVATE PROPERTY RIGHTS SATISFY FARMERS' VALUES FAVORING FREEDOM AND INDEPENDENCE.
PROGRESS, EFFICIENCY, AND PRODUCTIVITY GOALS ARE CONSISTENT WITH FARMERS' FAITH IN THE WORK ETHIC AS A KEY TO SURVIVAL.

Слайд 18

Слайд 19

PUBLIC INTEREST ORIENTATION GOALS /1
GOALS OF FOOD AND AGRICULTURE POLICY ARE

NOT JUST THOSE OF FARMERS.
THE GOALS OF INDIVIDUALS AND GROUPS OTHER THAN FARMERS HAVE AN INCREASINGLY IMPORTANT ROLE IN POLICY DECISIONS. SUCH GOALS CAN BE CHARACTERIZED AS HAVING A PUBLIC INTEREST ORIENTATION.
EXAMPLE, PRODUCING AN AMPLE SUPPLY OF FOOD AT REASONABLE PRICES IS A GOAL THAT HAS TRADITIONALLY BEEN USED AS A PUBLIC INTEREST JUSTIFICATION FOR POLICIES SUBSIDIZING FARM PRICES AND INCOMES. FARMERS FROM TIME TO TIME CHARACTERIZE THIS GOAL AS AN INTEGRAL PART OF A POLICY DESIGNED TO ENSURE CONSUMERS LOW FOOD PRICES THE SO-CALLED CHEAP FOOD POLICY.

Слайд 20

PUBLIC INTEREST ORIENTATION GOALS /2
EXAMPLES
MAINTAINING HEALTH AND REDUCING HEALTH HAZARDS IS

A GOAL THAT GIVES RISE TO POLICIES AND PROGRAMS DESIGNED TO PROTECT THE ENVIRONMENT AND ENSURE THE SAFETY OF THE FOOD SUPPLY. THE RESULTING REGULATIONS FREQUENTLY HAVE BEEN VIEWED BY FARMERS AND AGRIBUSINESS AS CONFLICTING WITH THEIR GOALS OF INCREASED INCOME AND THEIR VALUES SUPPORTING PERSONAL FREEDOM.

Слайд 21

Слайд 22

PUBLIC INTEREST ORIENTATION GOALS /3
EXAMPLES
PRESERVING AND ALLOCATING RESOURCES SUCH AS LAND

AND WATER FOR FUTURE GENERATIONS HAS BECOME A MAJOR CONCERN. ALTHOUGH THE GOAL OF SOIL CONSERVATION HAS LONG BEEN A CONCERN OF FARMERS, RESOURCE POLICY HAS TAKEN ON A NEW PUBLIC INTEREST DIMENSION. RESOURCE POLICY IS A BATTLEGROUND BETWEEN FARMERS AND ENVIRONMENTALISTS THAT IS RAPIDLY COMING INTO THE MAINSTREAM OF AGRICULTURE AND FOOD POLICY. IN THE PROCESS, FARMERS ARE FINDING THEMSELVES SUBJECT TO MORE REGULATIONS AS THEY SEE THEIR PROPERTY RIGHTS AS BEING IN JEOPARDY.

Слайд 23

Слайд 24

THE IMPORTANCE OF COMPROMISE/1
PERSONS BELONGING TO THE SAME ORGANIZATION TEND TO

HAVE COMMON GOALS, VALUES, AND BELIEFS.
EVEN WITHIN AN ORGANIZATION, THE GOALS, VALUES, AND BELIEFS OF ALL INDIVIDUALS ARE NOT THE SAME; NOR ARE THEY HELD WITH THE SAME INTENSITY.
TO ARRIVE AT A COHESIVE POLICY POSITION, COMPROMISE AMONG THE MEMBERS OF A GROUP WITH RESPECT TO GOALS, VALUES, OR BELIEFS IS FREQUENTLY NECESSARY.
THE WILLINGNESS OF THE MEMBERS TO COMPROMISE IS A SOURCE OF STRENGTH.

Слайд 25

THE IMPORTANCE OF COMPROMISE/2
MORE RECENTLY, THE MAJOR CONFLICTS HAVE BEEN BETWEEN

FARMERS AND AGRIBUSINESS ON THE ONE HAND AND ENVIRONMENTALISTS ON THE OTHER.
WITHOUT COMPROMISE, CONSTANT FRICTION AMONG MEMBERS OF THE GROUP IS POSSIBLE. SUFFICIENT FRICTION RESULTS IN AN INABILITY OF THE GROUP TO ARRIVE AT A POLICY POSITION.
THESE CONFLICTS BECOME CONSIDERABLY MORE DIVISIVE THAN THOSE AMONG FARMERS AND COULD EVENTUALLY JEOPARDIZE THE BASE OF GOVERNMENT SUPPORT FOR AGRICULTURE.

Слайд 26

THE IMPACT OF TIME
GOALS, VALUES, AND BELIEFS CHANGE OVER TIME. SUCH

CHANGES MAY RESULT FROM IMPROVED COMMUNICATION, EXPOSURE TO NEW IDEAS, IMPROVED EDUCATION, OR A CHANGE IN THE NATURE OF THE PROBLEM.
THE GOALS OF POLICY MAY ALSO CHANGE OVER TIME BECAUSE OF THE RELATIVE IMPORTANCE OF INDIVIDUALS OR GROUPS INFLUENCING POLICY.
FOR EXAMPLE, INCREASED CONSUMER AND ENVIRONMENT ACTIVISM HAS MADE THE GOALS RELATED TO CONSERVATION, FOOD SAFETY, NUTRITION, AND THE PRESERVATION OF ENDANGERED SPECIES MORE

IMPORTANT IN THE POLICY PROCESS.

Слайд 27

WHY GOVERNMENT BECOMES INVOLVED
28
THE SPECIFIC REASONS FOR GOVERNMENT INVOLVEMENT IN AGRICULTURE

HAVE CHANGED AS THE NATURE OF THE FARM PROBLEM AND THE OVERALL POLITICAL, SOCIAL, AND ECONOMIC ENVIRONMENT WITHIN WHICH AGRICULTURE OPERATES HAS CHANGED.
FIVE MOST FREQUENTLY MENTIONED REASONS FOR GOVERNMENT INVOLVEMENT IN AGRICULTURE ARE INDICATED FIRST. THESE ARE FOLLOWED BY TWO MORE BASIC ECONOMIC CONCEPTS USED TO EXPLAIN GOVERNMENT INVOLVEMENT IN AGRICULTURE.

Слайд 28

MOST FREQUENTLY MENTIONED REASONS FOR GOVERNMENT INVOLVEMENT IN AGRICULTURE/1
LOW FARM INCOME

TRADITIONALLY HAS BEEN THE MAJOR JUSTIFICATION FOR PROGRAMS THAT SUPPORT FARM PRICES AND INCOMES. THESE PROGRAMS, HOWEVER, HAVE BECOME INCREASINGLY CONTROVERSIAL AS GOVERNMENT COSTS HAVE RISEN, FARM NUMBERS HAVE DECLINED, AND FARM SIZE HAS BECOME MORE DIVERSE.
THE NEED TO STABILIZE FARM PRICES AND INCOMES ALSO HAS PROVIDED AN IMPORTANT JUSTIFICATION FOR FARM PROGRAMS. STABILITY IS DESIRED BOTH TO REDUCE THE INCIDENCE OF MISTAKES IN PRODUCTION DECISIONS AND TO REDUCE ECONOMIC STRESS ON FARM FAMILIES. STABILITY HAS BEEN USED AS A JUSTIFICATION BOTH FOR RAISING PRICES AND FOR LOWERING THEM.

Слайд 29

MOST FREQUENTLY MENTIONED REASONS FOR GOVERNMENT INVOLVEMENT IN AGRICULTURE/2
THE IMPORTANCE OF

AN ADEQUATE SUPPLY OF FOOD HISTORICALLY HAS BEEN USED TO JUSTIFY GOVERNMENT PROGRAMS THAT EXPAND FARM PRODUCTION, SUCH AS IRRIGATION PROJECTS, AGRICULTURAL RESEARCH, AND EXTENSION. AGRICULTURAL ABUNDANCE HAS BEEN SEIZED UPON AS A SOURCE OF EXPORT EARNINGS AND AS A DIPLOMATIC WEAPON OF FOREIGN POLICY. FOOD HAS THUS BECOME RECOGNIZED AS HAVING A VALUE THAT EXTENDS BEYOND NUTRITION.

Слайд 30

MOST FREQUENTLY MENTIONED REASONS FOR GOVERNMENT INVOLVEMENT IN AGRICULTURE/3
THE SAFETY OF

THE FOOD SUPPLY BECAME AN IMPORTANT ISSUE ONCE THE ABILITY OF THE FARMER TO PRODUCE AN ADEQUATE SUPPLY OF FOOD WAS DEMONSTRATED. OVER TIME, THE SAFETY ISSUE EVOLVED FROM A CONCERN WITH SANITATION TO THE CONTEMPORARY CONTROVERSY OVER ADDITIVES, PESTICIDES, RESIDUES, AND NUTRITION.
PROTECTING THE CAPACITY OF AGRICULTURE TO PRODUCE IN FUTURE GENERATIONS HAS LED TO PROGRAMS THAT CONSERVE THE SOIL. THIS CONCERN HAS SINCE SPREAD TO CONSERVATION OF LIMITED WATER SUPPLIES, TO PROTECTION OF WATER QUALITY, TO PRESERVATION OF PRIME FARMLAND IN POPULOUS AREAS, AND TO THE MORE RECENT CONCERN ABOUT SUSTAINABILITY.

Слайд 31

ECONOMICS, ECONOMISTS, AND PUBLIC POLICY
ECONOMICS PLAYS AN IMPORTANT ROLE IN THE

DEVELOPMENT OF AGRICULTURE AND
FOOD POLICIES.
THE TRADITIONAL FARM PROBLEMS OF SURPLUS PRODUCTION AND INSTABILITY ARE ROOTED IN ECONOMICS.
AGRICULTURE AND FOOD POLICIES, IN TURN, HAVE A DIRECT IMPACT TO WELFARE OF
RURAL AND URBAN AREA PEOPLE.
