Impact of Fuel Price Increases on Texas Crops

This study estimates the impact of fuel price increases on Texas crop income with probabilistic forecasts of 2006-2008 production costs, planted acres and net returns for the state's major crops under alternative fuel cost assumptions. Revenue forecasts are entered into an input-output model to estimate impacts on the state economy
