标题：WAS FAIR FAIR TO U.S. CORN GROWERS? AN ANALYSIS OF THE PAYMENTS OFFERED TO CORN GROWERS UNDER THE 1996 FEDERAL AGRICULTURAL IMPROVEMENT AND REFORM ACT

Option-pricing techniques are used to determine whether program benefits to corn producers are smaller or larger under the new program than the old.
