This publication offers an analysis of the policy options available in the US for managing risk to crops and revenue, and tries to establish the extent to which these may distort markets by affecting trade or production. The paper is organized around four topics; 1) a brief history of US farm policy, 2) an examination of risk as a rationale for farm policy, 3) observations related to the debate over the next US Farm Bill, 4) World Trade Organization considerations
