Book excerpt: Excerpt from Farm Financing and Business Prosperity The fact that agriculture is the keystone of the American economic and business structure has been more widely advertised during the past five years, and has been brought home to everyone of us more forcibly, than at any time in the history of the country. A food conservation placard, embodying the art and technical skill of the advertising profession, hung in every kitchen throughout the land during the war; and every placard emphasized our dependence upon the farmer. Recently, magazines and newspapers of every description, reaching all parts of the country and all kinds of readers, have been full of discussion of the problems of the farmer. In 1920, just as the farmer was beginning to harvest his crops, the price of farm products, and with it the purchasing power of the farmer, declined abruptly. The effect upon our industries was immediate. Orders were cancelled, mills and factories shut down, and smokeless chimneys, idle cars, and jobless workers advertised in a very effective, though decidedly unpleasant, way the dependence of business upon the farmers' buying power. The Farmer the Greatest Producer, Borrower, and Buyer The farmer is the most essential cog in the driving wheel of the American business machine. He is the greatest producer, borrower, and buyer in the United States. The aggregate value, on the farm, of last year's agricultural output was more than $12,000,000,000, equal to more than two-thirds of the world's total international trade. And last year was a year of low values. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Farm Financing and Business Prosperity In 1920, the banks of the United States had outstanding loans to farmers amounting to more than - a sum greater by a billion dollars than all the money actually in circulation in the whole country. If we include mortgage loans by insurance companies, private investors, and other agencies, it is probable that the aggregate agricultural loans will total or approximately 25 per cent of the whole banking power of the United States. In 1920, farm machinery worth over was manufactured in the United States, and of this large total, all but worth had to find its market on -'ameri can farms. It has been estimated that, in one lway or another, the farmer uses one-tenth of all the steel produced in the United States, nearly a fourth of all the coal and gasoline, and 46 per cent of all the lumber and timber, or more wood and wood products than any other class of con sumers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book documents frontier knowledge on the drivers of agriculture productivity to derive pragmatic policy advice for governments and development partners on reducing poverty and boosting shared prosperity. The analysis describes global trends and long-term sources of total factor productivity growth, along with broad trends in partial factor productivity for land and labor, revisiting the question of scale economies in farming. Technology is central to growth in agricultural productivity, yet across many parts of the developing world, readily available technology is never taken up. We investigate demand-side constraints of the technology equation to analyze factors that might influence producers, particularly poor producers, to adopt modern technology. Agriculture and food systems are rapidly transforming, characterized by shifting food preferences, the rise and growing sophistication of value chains, the increasing globalization of agriculture, and the expanding role of the public and private sectors in bringing about efficient and more rapid productivity growth. In light of this transformation, the analysis focuses on the supply side of the technology equation, exploring how the enabling environment and regulations related to trade and intellectual property rights stimulate Research and Development to raise productivity. The book also discusses emerging developments in modern value chains that contribute to rising productivity. This book is the fourth volume of the World Bank Productivity Project, which seeks to bring frontier thinking on the measurement and determinants of productivity to global policy makers.
