Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today education stands between all men and all work. What this means in specific off-farm agricultural occupations is the object of this study. Advanced technology and education have helped to develop modern agriculture so that one farmer can now produce enough food for his family and 30 other persons. To achieve this level of production the producer is supported by a large group of personnel who service, process and distribute the products of the farm. There are more jobs in off-farm agricultural occupations today than there are on the farm. The purpose of this study is to identify and study the off-farm agricultural occupations in Yamhill County. Information for this study was obtained through a mailed questionraire and through personal interviews with persons qualified to provide the desired information about the occupations and the employees. A survey of firms in Yamhill County reveals that a large number have employees needing agricultural backgrounds. Most offfarm agricultural job opportunities are in semi-skilled categories. None are in unskilled categories. There will continue to be an increased demand for workers in off-farm occupations. The majority of the job opportunities require at least a high school education. Over one-half the employers were willing to cooperate with the school districts in work experience programs for students. A general knowledge of rural life is essential for offfarm agricultural workers. Based on the findings of this study, production agriculture should continue to be the core of instruction for vocational agriculture. The vocational agriculture program should be enriched and expanded to include specialized training for off-farm occupations. The Future Farmers of America organization should continue to be a strong and integral part of the vocational agriculture program.

What it means in specific occupational possibilities and opportunities is the area of this research. The farmer has made tremendous strides in production and is supported by a large group of people who service, process, and distribute the products of the farm. Today there are more jobs in off-farm agricultural occupations than there are on the farm. The purpose of this study is to identify the off-farm agricultural occupations in Yamhill County. Information for this study was obtained by mailed questionnaire and by personal interviews with persons that were qualified to supply the desired information about the business and the employees. The firms surveyed in Yamhill County indicated that a large number of employees needed an agricultural background. Most of the off -farm agricultural occupations are in the technical categories and no additional opportunities exist in the next five years for the unskilled level. The greatest number of the off -farm agricultural jobs require a high school education. Over one-half of the employers show some interest in working with the high schools to establish work experience programs for students. A general knowledge of agriculture and rural life is the most needed competency required for off-farm agricultural workers. Based on the findings of this study production agriculture should continue to be the core of instruction for vocational agriculture. Current programs should be enriched and extended to serve off-farm agriculture occupations. The Future Farmers of America organization should continue to be a strong and integral part of the vocational agriculture program.

This book was released on 2017 with total page 71 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis provides an extensive look at where permitted non-farm uses and dwellings have clustered within Exclusive Farm Use (EFU) zones in the Northern Willamette Valley in Oregon. There is a looming concern that non-farm related uses and dwellings, or non-farm development, are conflicting with agricultural preservation strategies. Specifically, non-farm developments can potentially undermine the critical mass of farmland needed to keep the agricultural economy sustainable, but until now, studies have lacked spatially precise data to systematically track these phenomena. This thesis offers methodological contributions towards analyzing these operations and presents a broad account of what has been occurring in the region. Using permit approval data from the Department of Land Conservation and Development (DLCD) and 2015 county tax lot shapefiles, I geocoded the locations of these uses and dwellings. I used location quotient and spatial autocorrelation coefficients to identify non-farm hotspots in the region and summarized different typologies that have developed. The findings reveal that viticulture operations have amassed near Dundee and Newberg in Yamhill County, while commercial activities and home occupations have clustered near the Salem-Keizer UGB. Concurrently, dwellings have clustered near the Yamhill-Polk County border. Finally, I offer suggestions to improve Oregon's agricultural land use policy and data management process, as well as advocate for more intensive research in the future to generate narratives for our results.
