Journal of Agricultural and Applied Economics, 1970, vol. 2, issue 1, 91-96

Abstract: Recently renewed interest has been shown in new programs for United States Agriculture. Long-term cropland retirement is one of the proposals that has received serious consideration. This report presents for consideration some insight gained on only one facet of general cropland retirement. Selecting which cropland to retire and its effect on the South in particular, have been considered under two different criteria. Both criteria retire cropland and production but the emphases differ.
