本文研究了大西洋中部六个州（特拉华州、马里兰州、纽约、新泽西、宾夕法尼亚州和弗吉尼亚州）50年（1949-1997年）内保护计划对农田损失率的影响。由于耕地流失受农业利润率变化、非农业用地需求和农民的替代就业机会的影响，我们也包括了控制这些因素的变量。因为高比例的农田损失实际上可能是一个县或州开始保护计划的原因，我们需要确定这种内生性是否会导致有偏见和不一致的结果。如果耕地保护计划只在耕地流失率高的县实施，那么我们需要确定如果该计划不存在的话，耕地流失率可能是多少，以确定该计划是否产生了影响。
This paper examines the impact of having a preservation program on the rate of farmland loss for a 50 year period (1949-1997) in six Mid-Atlantic States: Delaware, Maryland, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Virginia. Because farmland loss is affected by changing agricultural profitability, demand for land for non-agricultural purposes, and farmers' alternative employment opportunities, we include variables to control for these factors as well. Because a high rate of farmland loss may actually be the reason a county or state begins a preservation program, we need to determine if this endogeniety is causing biased and inconsistent results. If farmland preservation programs are only in counties with a high rate of farmland loss, then we need to establish what might have been the farmland loss rate if the program had not existed to determine if the program is having an impact.
