Abstract

A rectilinear regression model using the year-ending commercial corn stocks-to-use ratio and a set of dummy variables representing policy changes and weather-related production shocks explains more than 98 percent of the variation in the season average corn price paid to farmers in the 1963-2002 period, excluding 1985 and 1986.
