No 319373, USDA Miscellaneous from United States Department of Agriculture

Abstract: Excerpt from the Preface: This bibliography is a revision of U. S. Department of Agriculture Library List No. 64, issued in June 1958, and now out of print. Most of the items in the earlier list have been incorporated into this new one and later publications have been added to make this a complete revision. The references cited were published for the most part, between January 1953 and December 1962, although several earlier publications of particular interest and pertinence are included. Because of the widespread interest in contract farming and vertical integration, many news items and unsigned articles of purely timely interest are listed along with those of more permanent value. The publications cited indicate opinions, trends, the nature and extent of contracting and integration, and changes in the organizational structure of agriculture in the United States. Some of the citations include both horizontal and vertical integration. References to integration in foreign countries may be found in the subject index under the names of the countries. Most of the items listed are annotated and all are classified by subject. An author index and a subject index are provided.
