What led to the financial crisis facing today's farmers? How can policymakers ensure that such a devastating situation will not be repeated in the future? The only book of its kind, The Microeconomic Roots of the Farm Crisis explains how farm management choices made a decade ago led to the current situation. Discussing such areas as investments, handling of debt load, and holdings of liquid assets, this volume supports its theories with empirical evidence and suggests policy strategies for the future.
