A Climate And Environmental Strategy For U.S. Agriculture

The report disputes claims that the Kyoto Protocol would lead to dire economic consequences for American farmers, finding that net cash returns would likely decrease by less than one percent due to the small share of energy costs in production expenses.

• The implementation of the Kyoto Protocol would not result in economic disaster for U.S. agriculture, as the expected price changes would reduce net cash returns by less than one percent because energy costs represent a small portion of production expenses.
• Depending on the domestic policy framework established, the overall net cash returns for the agricultural sector could potentially be positive.
