Findings from the Quarterly
Food-at-Home Price Database
(QFAHPD) and other data sources.
What has been the role of crop
insurance and other farm programs
in grassland to cropland conversion?
Annual update to the ERS food

includes three related data series.
Spending on food away from home
was 47.9 percent of the $1,240.4
