Abstract

Effects of public grain stocks upon total stock enhancement were estimated for wheat and feed grains, 1973-85. Results indicate that government stocks have had a small or negligible effect upon enhancement of total carryover stocks of grain. The substitution effects ranged from 0.66 bushels for sorghum to 0.86 for barley.
