Western Journal of Agricultural Economics, 1985, vol. 10, issue 2, 7

Abstract: University agricultural economics programs were surveyed to assess the changes of the past decade. Undergraduate enrollments increased significantly while graduate enrollments were unchanged on average. Overall, agricultural economics departments became much larger relative to the average size of colleges of agriculture. Despite some changes in expectations concerning future growth areas, most programs appear to have been successful in meeting students' demands.
