The Economics of Farm Mechanization in the United States, 1950-1960

Elizabeth Gould Davis

No 317831, USDA Miscellaneous from United States Department of Agriculture

Abstract: Excerpt from the Preface: This selective bibliography is concerned with the costs of mechanization on the farm and the returns to the farmer therefrom, either in reduction of labor costs or in the increased value of the crop. It is a representative rather than an exhaustive compilation of the literature since 1950, and includes the first few months of 1960.
