Timeline and Milestones
As the economic analysis will be heavily dependant on the yield and cost impact from the transgenic soybean lines, the vast majority of the economic analysis must be conducted in the last year of the study.

Task i. Establish baseline data
1. Establish baseline data on:a. U.S. and global soybean marketsb. SDS losses
Utilize USDA World Ag. Supply & Demand data for 1a.
Combine USDA data with information from industry and commodity groups for 1b.
Example: The 2010 U.S. soybean crop was valued at $37.6 billion. SDS is estimated to have caused $0.82 billion in losses that year.

Task ii. Evaluate revenues and production costs
1. Generate historical average and projected pricesa. Price premiums/discounts for transgenicsb. Revenue impacts from yield changes
2. Generate production cost estimatesa. Utilize established costs for standard cropb. Augment cost budget for transgenics

Task iii. Analyze impact of adoption of lines in U.S.
1. Use the outputs from tasks i and ii as inputs for scenario analysis
a. Impacts on plantings, supply, demand, etc.b. 2 scenarios:
• Baseline: no transgenic adoption• Scenario: 50% adoption rate
