      abstract = {Since the introduction of genetically modified (GM) crops,  the commodity grain system has been under pressure to  segregate GM and non-GM crops.  Starting at the level of  the grain handler, members of the grain supply chain have  successfully used quality assurance and identity  preservation programs to segregate non GM crops.  Producers  delivering high-value, identity-preserved crops have become  interested in implementing these quality management systems  at the farm level.  We conduct a cost-benefit analysis that  shows that quality assurance program may be profitable for  producers, depending on their farm size and equipment  management strategy.},
