Errata

Several errata are necessary for articles and papers printed in 1988 issues of this Journal . In the February 1988 issue, page 185, a portion of the last column was misplaced in the second half of table 1 In the article by Bezuneh, Deaton, and Norton. The second half of table 1 should have appeared as follows: Several errata need to be made for the December issue. In Robert L. Thompson's paper, the following: Page 1032, column 2, under Acreage Reductions . The second sentence should read: “In writing the 1985 act, Congress responded to the environmental concerns about soil conservation and the commodity groups' desire for more supply control.” On page 1033, column 2, under Dairy and Sugar , the second sentence should read: “That is, we would continue on the trend established in the 1985 farm bill, with a 50¢ per hundredweight reduction in the support price each January 1st until excess supply falls below 5 billion pounds.” Under Other Commodities , line 5 should read: “more flexible on these commodities, ⋯” On page 1034, under Trade Policy , line 12, the sentence should read as follows: “Bush has made it clear that he would not advocate unilateral disarmament by the United States in agricultural policy, but he would be willing to negotiate a generalized reduction in agricultural subsidies and trade barriers to level the playing field around the world.” The last sentence in the paper, on page 1035, should read: “So, unless a major breakthrough occurs in the international trade negotiations, the next administration is likely to make its greatest imprint on policy through its implementation decisions, not through radical changes in the policies themselves.” Several corrections also need to be made in the Schwartz and Parker paper in the same issue, pages 1137–45. Table 1, page 1138: The definition of C i should read as follows: “ C i —output policies with disproportionate or ambiguous price effects.” Table 2, page 1139: The PSE row is missing an entry under the category “Research and Long‐Term Structural Policies.” It should read: “Ag.‐spec. subsidies b ” Page 1141, line 13: “since the rise in production causes” should be deleted and replaced by “in the form of higher producer prices causing output to rise and.⋯” Page 1141, line 26: “are needed to diagnose the broader economic implications of policy” should be deleted. The next sentence, “In other simple partial⊿” should begin a new paragraph. The final correction should be made on page 1212, column 1, in the first abstract on the page. The fifth line of the abstract should read: “Eighty percent of cooperatives responding to user surveys indicated the program was meeting the needs of their cooperative.”
