In this paper we consider factors that affect both crop prices and yields inorder to examine supply responses of major crops in the Southeast. Due tothe variable nature of crop production in the Southeast, previous studiesthat ignore price and yield risk may fail to capture one of the salientfeatures of the region's agriculture. Our results indicate supply elasticityvalues for corn, cotton, and soybeans of approximately 0.670, 0.506, and0.195, respectively. Compared with the results of studies in other regions,corn and cotton acres respond more to price changes and soybean acresrespond less to price changes.
