Dean E. McKee

Choices: The Magazine of Food, Farm, and Resource Issues, 1988, vol. 03, issue 2, 4

Abstract: The effects of adverse economic conditions in U.S. agriculture upon the structure of farming have been given wide publicity. At the same time but less widely noted, a quiet revolution has taken hold of the ancillary industries supporting agriculture as they struggle to adapt to the changed economic environment within which they must operate now and for the foreseeable future.
