The Regents of the University of Minnesota received a $627,562 Project Grant award from the U.S. Department of Agriculture's National Institute of Food and Agriculture under the Agriculture and Food Research Initiative (AFRI) federal grant program (CFDA #10.310). The award will fund the assembly and public release of a novel database of all state-level legislation from 1975 to 2021 affecting agricultural costs and revenues in the United States, regardless of whether the objectives of those policies were directly related to agriculture. Using web scraping, machine learning, and artificial intelligence, the research team will analyze state-level legislation over the study period to identify policies likely impacting agricultural economics, develop a classification mechanism for quantifying cost and revenue effects by commodity and crop, and create a web tool allowing other researchers to search and browse collected policies. The researchers will also analyze trends in agricultural policy over time and across states, as well as correlates of policy within each state. A codebook and publicly available database and web tool will be produced. The University of California Santa Cruz received a $100,000 subaward to contribute to the state policy analysis and database development.
