Difference between Output and Outcome

Some social science researchers do not differentiate between the output and outcome, while output is the instant product of an act as outcome is the effect of an act over the time. An example can better elaborate this.
A program is launched with the intention to secure food security through wheat support price. Wheat support price is raised from 650 per 40kg to 950 per 40kg as support price. Here output is the increase in the production in very next crop or more cultivation of wheat in next season due to attractive price and outcome will be the excess wheat assuring food safety.
