Will shallow-loss programs throw taxpayers in the deep end?

Wednesday, May 30, 2012 | 11:45 a.m. – 1:15 p.m.

385 Russell Senate Office Building Washington, DC 20510

One of the main provisions of the 2012 Farm Bill is a “shallow-loss” program. This program is being portrayed as a safety net, but there are significant questions that must be examined before the program is enacted. At this event, Vince Smith and Barry Goodwin will discuss these questions and will release new research and analysis on the cost of shallow-loss programs.
