Guide to Agriculture, U.S.A

Arthur R. Raper and Martha J. Raper

No 308506, Agricultural Information Bulletins from United States Department of Agriculture, Economic Research Service

Abstract: The purpose of the Guide is to introduce the reader to agriculture in the United States. Here will be found the general facts about the land and how it is used, the major crops and where they are grown, and the principal livestock products. Especial attention is given to farm families, where they live, how they do their work, and the way they help determine public policy as it affects agriculture. The Guide is prepared primarily for foreign visitors. It is hoped, however, that it will prove helpful also to citizens of the United States.
