Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book analyzes the performance of motor carrier services operating under the agricultural exemption in interstate trucking. It is an interesting read for those interested in the history and significant economic impact of exempt agricultural products on the US economy. The author presents a thorough examination of the original intent of the agricultural exemption and delivers a data-driven evaluation of the economic performance of the exempt sector against the standard of economic efficiency. Ultimately, the author reveals that the agricultural exemption has created a price-product combination that users prefer compared to regulated carriers. This finding challenges the "excessive competition" hypothesis, which suggests that exempt rates are below the cost of providing services. This book is a valuable contribution to the field of transportation economics and provides important insights into the effects of deregulation on the motor carrier industry.
