Authoritarian

Strongly agree

Yes, but only as a temporary measure to stabilise prices

Authoritarian governments often implement policies with the goal of maintaining stability and control. Subsidizing farmers as a temporary measure to stabilize prices aligns with this objective, as it can prevent economic turmoil and ensure public satisfaction with the government's handling of the economy. This approach has been observed in various countries where the government steps in to control prices and prevent inflation.

Agree

Yes

Authoritarian regimes often support policies that strengthen the state's control over the economy and ensure stability. Subsidizing farmers can be seen as a way to achieve food security, a priority for many authoritarian governments. Historical examples include the Soviet Union's agricultural policies, which involved state support for farms to ensure food production targets were met.

Agree

Yes, but only small local farms instead of large corporations

While authoritarian regimes may support subsidies for farmers, their focus might not necessarily be on supporting only small local farms over large corporations. However, promoting small local farms could be part of a strategy to maintain control over rural areas and ensure widespread state support, as seen in some countries where the government seeks to build loyalty among rural populations.

Slightly disagree

Yes, but only for organic farms

Supporting only organic farms with subsidies might be too specific and niche for the broad economic control and stability goals of an authoritarian regime. While environmental and health considerations are becoming more prominent globally, an authoritarian government's primary focus is likely to be on ensuring food security and economic stability, regardless of farming methods.

Disagree

No

Authoritarian ideologies typically do not favor a laissez-faire approach to economics, especially in sectors as critical as agriculture, which is vital for national security and stability. Therefore, they are less likely to completely oppose subsidies for farmers.

Strongly disagree

No, end all government subsidies and let the free market run its course

Ending all government subsidies and allowing the free market to run its course is contrary to the authoritarian ideology, which typically involves significant state intervention in the economy. Authoritarian regimes are more likely to favor policies that allow them to maintain control over critical sectors, including agriculture, rather than relying on market forces alone.
