The Economic Research Service (ERS) is a department within the U.S. Department of Agriculture that conducts research and analysis on various topics related to agriculture, food, and rural economies. They provide valuable insights and data on subjects such as farm practices, food safety, international markets, natural resources, and population trends. With a focus on informing policy decisions and supporting economic development, the ERS plays a crucial role in understanding and addressing the challenges and opportunities in the agricultural sector.
Through their publications, data products, and research reports, the ERS offers a comprehensive view of the characteristics and trends in U.S. farms, as well as the impact of various programs and policies on agricultural risk management. Their work also explores the relationship between agriculture and renewable energy, controlled environment agriculture, and the financial-climate risks associated with livestock forage programs. With a commitment to providing reliable and up-to-date information, the ERS serves as a valuable resource for policymakers, researchers, and stakeholders in the agricultural industry.
