Discussion: Economic Sustainability of Rural Areas

Journal of Agricultural and Applied Economics, 2011, vol. 43, issue 3, 453-455

Abstract: The three articles in this invited paper session examine value-added strategies related to agriculture and food at the state and federal level designed to enhance rural development. Two of the papers dealt with the GO TEXAN program and the other with organic agriculture. All three papers were well written and interesting, but all three also shed light on the problem of using classical economic theory to interpret differentiated agriculture and food products as opposed to undifferentiated commodities.
