Analyzing Systems of Agricultural Resource Organization

Phillips Foster

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, 1966, vol. 48, issue 2, 272-278

Abstract: This article proposes a method for analyzing the way agricultural resources are organized from point to point around the world. The method is based mainly on the identification of the institutional dimensions of the classical factors of production associated with any particular system of agricultural resource organization. A classification scheme for categorizing the various systems of agricultural resource organization, based on management and tenure criteria, is presented and developed briefly. The "systems analysis" approach presented here is useful to the development economist since it serves, among other things, to draw attention systematically to the great variety of possible factors affecting the development of any particular agricultural economy.
