cooperative directors and managers should consider their own …             The Tax Reform and Jobs Act of 2017 could have significant implications for how agricultural cooperatives distribute  patronage back to their members. Under the tax reform plan, there are four key changes for cooperatives – (1)  elimination of the domestic production activities deduction or Section 199; (2) lower corporate tax rates; (3) lower  member taxes on qualified patronage distributions; and (4) a new tax deduction tentatively labeled Section 199A which  provides a deduction at the cooperative level as well as a deduction at the member level. Many cooperative directors,  managers, farmer‐owners, and poli …

                                                                                                                                                    2  Since farm data are non‐rival and digital (i.e. copies can be made at near‐zero cost), we must accept  that farm data are “non‐excludable” once other users have access. Given that copies of data are  considered identical to the original, the ability to exclude others from accessing data no longer exists  once another entity has a copy (i.e. access). Most privately held goods typically are excludable;  however the lack of excludability does not necessarily mean that farm data are a public good.    Rather than consider data ownership, a better question regarding farm data may be ‘can I keep others  from accessing data that only I control?’. The answer is ‘yes, but only until the data are shared with a  third party or aggregated into community’. Privately held farm data may be considered excludable if  and only if it is in the possession of the party that generated it (see our recent paper for discussion).  Once the farm data has been shared with another party or aggregated into a big data community,  excludability has essentially been eliminated. Therein lies the problem. To make the most use of farm  data it typically needs to be aggregated into a community for big data analysis to provide useful  insights (see forthcoming article on value of data isolated to the farm versus aggregated into  community). The notion of 1) excluding others from accessing data and 2) making the most valuable  use of data are at competing ends. I’m not going to discount the importance of excluding others from  accessing data; the individual must make a benefit‐cost analysis decision at each decision step. First, if  a landowner asks for a copy of data generated from their farmland then it is likely most farmers would  opt to maintain a positive working relationship. Second, data remaining in ‘data tombs’ or ‘data silos’  isolated to an individual farm has essentially zero value until that data are converted to information  suitable for making farm management decisions. When properly  …
