Evidence is provided on the extent to which wheat price policies operating over the period 1953‐54 to 1983‐84 achieved objectives related to the levels and stability of key industry variables. The general findings are that the levels of achievement have been modest and that trade‐offs have been involved. This evidence is supplementary to the evidence already available from efficiency‐based studies.
