These factors have led many farmers to consider "alternative" farming methods and practices to replace conventional farming practices. "Alternative" systems include those going by a variety of labels, not all of which always mean the same thing. Terms used include regenerative sustainable, low-input, and organic, among others. A recently established research and education program of the U.S. Department of Agriculture uses the term "low-input/sustainable agriculture" ("LISA"). The LISA program contrasts conventional and alternative or low-input/sustainable farming systems in …

International Lending To The Third World, Mark Leddy

Economics Staff Paper Series (1969 - 2017)

The main emphasis of this paper is on the debt repayment difficulties experienced by the Less Developed Countries (LDCs) in the 1980's.

Lenders' Perception Of Borrower Participation In Crop Insurance Programs, Burton Pflueger, Brian Schmiesing Sep 1987

Lenders' Perception Of Borrower Participation In Crop Insurance Programs, Burton Pflueger, Brian Schmiesing

Economics Staff Paper Series (1969 - 2017)

The objective of this study was to provide insight to a crop insurance marketing question not previously studied – the viewpoint of lenders financing the premiums for Federal Crop Insurance. The viewpoint of lenders as to the extent of which their producers were participating in a crop insurance program could indicate the current and projected levels of participation, the extent to which lenders regard crop insurance programs as cost effective risk reducing strategies, and reasons for low participation. Thus, a survey of lenders was conducted to address the question of lenders' reaction to borrower participation in crop insurance programs.
