- Determine, annually, the net price that corn, soybean, wheat and hog producers would receive by following advisory service recommendations

- Evaluate market advisory service pricing performance relative to market benchmark prices.

- Evaluate market advisory service pricing performance relative to farmer benchmark prices wherever feasible.

- Determine if pricing performance is predictable based on past pricing performance.

- Determine the characteristics of market advisory services that are correlated with performance.

- Determine the relationship between pricing performance and riskiness of recommendations.

- Develop an extensive performance profile of each advisory service.
