A Climate And Environmental Strategy For U.S. Agriculture

This report examines the potential impact of the Kyoto Protocol on U.S. agriculture, disputing claims that its implementation would lead to severe economic consequences for American farmers.

• The report concludes that the implementation of the Kyoto Protocol would not cause a disaster for U.S. agriculture. Because energy costs represent a small portion of production expenses, the expected price changes under the protocol would decrease net cash returns by less than one percent. Furthermore, with appropriate domestic policy, overall net cash returns for agriculture could be positive.
