Abstract
The paper reviews a 2004 article "Using Macroeconomics to Explain Entry, Exit and Farm Size in the Dairy Industry in the United States" applying macroeconomic theory. The paper explains the problem of farmers exiting the industry when excess demand depressed prices.
From the Paper
"In "Using Macroeconomics to Explain Entry Exit and Farm Size in the Dairy Industry in the United States", Foltz applied macroeconomic theory and models to explain farm exits and changes in herd-size among Connecticut dairy farms. Foltz found that a relatively stable inelastic demand caused many farmers to exit the industry when excess demand depressed prices. The demand for dairy products remained relatively stable regardless of price, however excess supply led many farmers to reduce prices..."

Abstract
Melatonin is a substance that is used in the husbandry of a variety of producing animals in agriculture. The substance is available for such applications as both injections and implants for the purpose of boosting melatonin levels in production animals. Alternatively, some research has indicated that melatonin production in agricultural animals can be increased through the use of supplemental light. This paper proposes a study to determine the effect of supplemental lighting on melatonin production in dairy cattle and to determine the effects of increased levels of melatonin production in dairy cattle on the productive output of such cattle. The paper also includes a literature review of the subject.
From the Paper
"In the contemporary period, diary farmers face increasing economic pressures through the interaction of demands for reduced market prices and increased costs of production inputs. Government subsidies no longer can be relied upon to provide stability in dairy farming. Thus, dairy farmers must seek ways to improve the productivity of their operations where possible. A failure to identify and implement effective strategies to improve productivity will lead to further declines in agriculture generally and for the quality of rural life more specifically."

"NAFTA AND UNITED STATES AGRICULTURE
Introduction
This research examines the effects of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) on agricultural industries in the United States. Within the agricultural sector, an emphasis is placed on the meat products industry, and within the meat products industry, an emphasis is placed on the beef industry.
From Perception to Reality
Many Americans tend to think that NAFTA will greatly harm the United States economy. This perception was supported by Republican presidential candidate Pat Buchanan in 1996 and by third-party candidate Ross Perot in 1992. The gist of this perception is that free trade generally and NAFTA specifically will rob the United States of industrial jobs and destroy global market.."

"Introduction
The advertising to which Americans (and consumers throughout the world) are subjected to on a daily basis represents a substantial investment by companies. Companies create advertising campaigns with the goal of promoting their products or services, and advertising is generally considered to have a substantial impact on demand. If this were not the case, it is unlikely that companies would commit the resources that they do to the process. This research examines some of the ways in which advertising can affect demand for goods and services, and evaluates specific examples of Web-based promotion and their apparent goals with regard to changing demand. In addition, a computer software company's marketing program is evaluated in light of its goals and the way in which it seeks to modify demand."

Abstract
This paper suggests that in the government food pyramid, the generic category of meat products is too general; it should be separated into two subcategories of red meat and white meat and each subcategory should be treat differently. The author points out that, similarly, the carbohydrate category should be into subcategories: (1) Foods such as nuts and beans, which can provide part of the proteins needed, (2) whole grain foods and (3) the remaining carbohydrate category including white rice, white bread, pasta and sweets. The paper relates that the consumption of dairy products should be reduced.
From the Paper
"However, the food pyramid never considered some of the negative effects of carbohydrates and of consuming them in 6 to 11 servings. One of these would be the fact that a massive switch in one's diet from fats to carbohydrates increases the blood level of triglyceride, with increased chances of heart disease. It would seem, in this case, that the old pyramid substitutes one source of heart diseases with another. Additionally, levels of low - density lipoprotein, commonly known as "bad cholesterol" increase as well when switching to carbohydrates. An increase in glucose and sugar levels, as well as the risk of obesity should be mentioned as well."

Abstract
This paper explains how the states have seen their powers decreased in recent years, as the American national government has increased its power. In debating this issue, the writer discusses why it is important to look at the good and bad sides of this relationship. The writer discusses which spheres the powers have been increased - the federalization of criminal law, the control of dairy farming and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
From the Paper
"The National Government has started to decrease states' powers concerning criminal law, while increasing its power in these matters. The ABA Task force recently issued The Federalization of Criminal Law report which stated that the federalization of crime distorts the Constitution's structure of powers in a least three respects.
The federalization of crime represents a usurping by the Congress of police powers, which the Constitution leaves in the states and withholds from the federal government."
