Policy Directions for the United States Sugar Program
1970
Horton, Donald C.
The legislative basis for the United States sugar program, which involves both a high degree of domestic protectionism and substantial statutory subsidies to sugar producers in selected foreign countries, expires at the end of 1971. The case is presented for reducing domestic protectionism and for financing what remains, as well as any foreign subsidies, through the budget rather than as at present through the domestic price of sugar. A start in those directions is oulined. Also, specific changes in the present sugar program are suggested for consideration in case major reform is not politically feasible in 1971.
