EXPLAINING ECONOMIC LINKAGES BETWEEN FARMS AND LOCAL COMMUNITIES: LOOKING BEYOND FARM SIZE

Brian Roe and Aaron Stockberger

No 20208, 2004 Annual meeting, August 1-4, Denver, CO from American Agricultural Economics Association (New Name 2008: Agricultural and Applied Economics Association)

Abstract: We explore the economic linkage between farms and neighboring communities using primary data collected from a state-wide cross section of 461 dairy farms. Empirical results implicate not only farm characteristics such as size, operator tenure and ethnicity but also the characteristics of the local community.
