Project Background
A significant obstacle to inducing producer adoption of best management practices is the possibility that, in the short-term, such practices may reduce production yields. The purpose of this project is to test and evaluate the performance of an innovative, market-based, performance guarantee approach that increases producer adoption rates by removing economic risk as a barrier.
