The Effect of Resource Investment Programs on Agricultural Labor Employment and Farm Numbers*

James C. Cato and B. R. Eddleman

Journal of Agricultural and Applied Economics, 1974, vol. 6, issue 1, 213-219

Abstract: Investments in natural resources usually are for the expressed purposes of conserving, developing, or managing the nation's supply of soil, water, timber, minerals, and marine resources. Many public investment programs in natural resources have also contained explicit development objectives. Any explanation of employment and income changes occurring within a region requires analysis of many interacting variables because the effects of natural resource investments may be masked by counteractions.
