EPAS's work is largely quantitative market and program analysis - supply, demand, price, incoming, participation rates, and outlay estimates/projections. These responsibilities are divided among the six individual groups composing EPAS. EPAS employees have an economics or agricultural economics background - about three-fourths with doctorate degrees and on-fourth with masters' degrees. Along with relatively high educational backgrounds come noticeably above-average writing, computer, and quantitative skills.
