Book excerpt: Excerpt from Progress and Economic Problems in Farm Mechanization While the term mechanization embraces every form of farm equipment from the simplest to the most complex, the statistical in formation available makes it necessary to confine quantitative analysis to tractors and other factory-produced equipment. The wide di versity of this machinery and the lack of uniformity in national statistics further complicate any detailed comparison of particular items of equipment other than tractors. Statistical reports frequently do not distinguish between tractors used for agricultural and non agricultural purposes, and most of them do not record the types and sizes of the machines. Under the circumstances, tractors only are expressed in units in this publication; other types of factory-produced equipment are measured in terms of market value. The latter in olude tillage and cultivating implements, seeding and harvesting equipment, Sprayers and dusters, barnyard equipment, dairy farm requisites, and spare parts, but not irrigation pumps and stationary engines. In much of the discussion the tractor has been used as the symbol of power-operated equipment in general.

Economic Research Service and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-09 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Summary of Current Program, 10/1/66, and Preliminary Report of Progress for 9/1/65 to 10/1/66 Farm production economics research, as used in this report, deals with many and varied economic problems of agricultural production. The work is con cerned with the economics of organization and management of farms, use of capital and labor in agriculture, production and conservation practices, adjustments in production and resource use, farm financial problems of credit and insurance, and appraisal of alternative production policies and programs. A continuing major problem in agriculture is the adjustment of production, both in the aggregate and for major commodities, to market outlets. Achieve ment of economic balance in agriculture and adequate returns to farmers is likely to continue to be difficult over the next 5 to 10 years as we strive to match the increasing capacity of agriculture to produce with the food and fiber requirements of a larger U. S. Population and expanding outlets for exports and Food for Peace programs. Farms are decreasing in number and increasing in size and degree of specialization. Farm machinery, ferti lizers, and other innovations, are substituting for land and labor. Coupled with rising farmland values, these developments necessitate large and increasing capital investments per farm, and alter farm credit and insurance needs. Increasing dependence on purchased inputs and on cash markets for products make net income increasingly vulnerable to changes in prices of both inputs and outputs. These trends challenge the most rigorous research in the field of farm economics. Results of research in this field are widely used as aids in management and policy decisions at the farm, area, regional, State, and national levels.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Agricultural Economics Research, Vol. 3: January, 1951 For those people who remain in agriculture, with their increased skills and improved managerial ability, there is little doubt that greater production efficiency would enhance their opportunities for financial betterment. The size of the net product that will accrue to any given area will depend upon the preportion of the farms that are able to take advantage of new techniques and the speed with which such adjustments are made. There can be little doubt that mechanization will affect the size of Southern farms. As it greatly increases labor 's capacity for land, the old family size cotton farm is likely to be too small for an efficient, economic unit. In addition to the in creased need for capital to buy machinery and technical services, there will be a need for capital to buy additional land.

This book was released on 2017-11-09 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Summary of Current Program, 9/1/62 and Preliminary Report of Progress for 11/1/60 to 9/1/62 Rapid technological change in agriculture and the tendency for farm production to outstrip growing demands for products gives rise to continued need for economic adjustments in our farm economy. Farms are decreasing in number and increasing in size and degree of specialization. Farm machinery, fertilizers, and other innovations, are substituting for land and labor. These trends, along with continued concern over the use and conservation of the Nation's land and water resources, and with growing concern over the problems of rural people, especially those in chronically depressed areas, challenge the most rigorous research in the field of farm economics. Results of farm economics research are used-widely as aids in management decisions at the farm, area, regional, State, river basin, and national levels. Farm economics research is conducted by the Farm Economics Division, Economic Research Service, U. S. Department of Agriculture; by all of the State experiment stations; and to a lesser extent by such other organiza tions as private research foundations, commercial research companies, universities, trade associations, banks, and other businesses. Usda's Farm Economics Division currently devotes about 216 professional man years to this field of work, State experiment stations approximately 190 professional man-years, and all other organizations probably devote not more than an estimated 260 professional man-years to this type of research.

Download or read book Principles of Rural Economics Classic Reprint written by Thomas Nixon Carver and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-22 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Principles of Rural Economics Though agriculture is our oldest and by far our largest and most important industry, it has only recently occurred to us in the United States that we had a rural problem. Nations, like individuals, are wont to prize the things they do not have rather than the things they have. Agriculture was so natural to our conditions, and established itself so easily, that we took it as a matter of course and gave our attention to the development of industries which did not show a disposition to grow naturally. Accordingly, during the first century of our national existence, our economic policy was framed mainly in the interest of the urban industries. The logical result of this artificial fostering of manufactures and commerce was the rapid building up of great overgrown cities and the creation of a group of urban social problems for which we were woefully unprepared. During the next twenty-five years these problems occupied the attention of economists and students of social science almost to the ex clusion of everything else. It is only during the last decade that we have awakened to the fact that there is a rural as well as an urban problem. The agricultural colleges and the universities began offering courses on agricultural and rural economics, and there has been a remarkable development of interest in agricul ture in the high schools of the country, which augurs well for the future of rural civilization in America.

Download or read book Sustainable Agricultural Mechanization A Framework for Africa written by Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and published by Food & Agriculture Org.. This book was released on 2019-03-13 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This framework presents ten interrelated principles/elements to guide Sustainable Agricultural Mechanization in Africa (SAMA). Further, it presents the technical issues to be considered under SAMA and the options to be analysed at the country and sub regional levels. The ten key elements required in a framework for SAMA are as follows: The analysis in the framework calls for a specific approach, involving learning from other parts of the world where significant transformation of the agricultural mechanization sector has already occurred within a three-to-four decade time frame, and developing policies and programmes to realize Africa’s aspirations of Zero Hunger by 2025. This approach entails the identification and prioritization of relevant and interrelated elements to help countries develop strategies and practical development plans that create synergies in line with their agricultural transformation plans. Given the unique characteristics of each country and the diverse needs of Africa due to the ecological heterogeneity and the wide range of farm sizes, the framework avoids being prescriptive.
