No 320644, Agricultural Economics Bibliography from United States Department of Agriculture, Economic Research Service

Abstract: Excerpt from the Foreword: This bibliography was designed to meet a special need which arose through the designation by Secretary Wallace of the Bureau of Agricultural Economics as the agency to perform the research work in connection with the administration of Section 201 of Title II of the Agricultural Adjustment Act of 1933, relating to transportation. Although the interest of workers in the Bureau of Agricultural Economics lies mainly in the transportation of agricultural commodities, material relating to certain phases of transportation in general and to the agencies of transportation have been included. Because of the large volume of material, the bibliography has been divided into two parts. Part I contains references relating to the transportation of agricultural commodities, and in addition references relating to transportation in general and to certain of its phases – competition between carriers, coordination of transport facilities, containers, freight rates, and State and Federal regulation of transport facilities. The references relating to agricultural commodities are classified according to commodity.
