Structural Change Implications for Small Farms: Discussion

Roger A. Hinson

Journal of Agricultural and Applied Economics, 1996, vol. 28, issue 1, 67-72

Abstract: Gebremedhin and Christy focus on agriculture's trend toward concentration and industrialization, and how small farms may be affected by the mostly unintended consequences of government policy. They identify a set of forces that may move smaller farmers out of agriculture, resulting in social costs both to individuals and families forced to change occupations and homes, and to their communities.
