17 pages., Analysis revealed that the United Sorghum Checkoff Program (USCP) promotion programs, 1975-76 to 2015-16, resulted in a 4% increase in the sales value of sorghum for food and industrial uses and a 1% increase in total sorghum farm revenue. The farm-level benefit-cost ratio was estimated at between 5.8 and 7.1 in terms of producer profit per dollar spent on promotion.
Online from AgEconSearch., Authors estimated losses in consumption and sales revenue resulting when expenditures for generic advertising and promotion for orange juice were cut nearly to zero, as well as estimated time required for the market to recover from the check-off strategy of nearly going dark. "The research presented here demonstrates that reductions in generic advertising are followed by losses that extend far beyond the period of little or no advertising."
