CRS-5 the developments that can, sometimes overnight, render even the most recent CCC cost estimate out°of*date. CCC Cost Concepts The $26 billion in FY86 costs, noted above, are "net outlays," which measure Federal aid to farmers in any single year. However, a closer look at them as well as several other farm budget measurements can be helpful to understanding the true taxpayer cost of farm assistance. Net outlays, also sometimes called "net expenditures,' portray the difference between what the CCC spends in a given year to support farm prices and income, and what it earns during the same year from surplus commodity sales, loan repayments, and so forth. Net outlays do not necessarily translate into losses, however. Some outlays may be recoverable at a later time, while others may not be. Recoverable outlays are mainly in the form of nonrecourse loans. If farmers enrolled in price support programs are able to sell their crops for prices (per bushel or other unit) that are higher than the value of the Federal loans they obtained by using these crops as collateral, they repay the loans with interest to the CCC. Therefore, the CCC will recoup its outlays for these particular loans. If, however, prices are at or below loan l levels, a large number of loans will not be repaid. The CCC instead takes

CR8-21 in order to keep large producers participating--even if outlays are high for the next several years. That way, the large farm surpluses might be reduced without further harming an already ailing farm economy, it hasbeen argued. Still others assert that no farm policy can provide solutions to all of agriculture's problems, mainly because macroeconomic and other forces outside of the sector today play a far more important role in determining farmers‘ well“being- Perhaps, they believe, Federal farm programs today can only treat some of the symptoms of-—but not cure-“an ailing agricultural economy.
