Última Structural and Financial Characteristics of U.S. Farms, 1995: 20th Annual Family Farm Report to Congress AgEcon Sommer, Judith E.; Hoppe, Robert A.; Green, Robert C.; Korb, Penelope J.. National average statistics related to farm production mask the diversity in the Nation's 2 million farms and the people who operate them. Farms in the United States differ not only by size (sales and acres) and type of production, but also by organizational characteristics (land ownership, legal organization, contracting arrangements) and financial characteristics (debt, assets, income, expenditures). Farm operators and their households vary with respect to demographic characteristics (occupation, age, education), financial characteristics (dependence on farm income, operator/spouse labor allocation), and management characteristics (information sources, business goals).

Ano: 1998 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/33620 America's Diverse Family Farms: 2010 Edition AgEcon Hoppe, Robert A.; Banker, David E.; MacDonald, James M.. American farms vary widely in size and other characteristics, but farming is still an industry of family businesses. Ninety-eight percent of farms are family farms, and they account for 82 percent of farm production. Small family farms make up most of the U.S. farm count and hold the majority of farm assets, but they produce a modest share of U.S. farm output. In contrast, large-scale family farms and nonfamily farms—only 12 percent of all farms—account for 84 percent of farm production. Small farms are less profitable than large-scale farms, on average, and the households operating them tend to rely on off-farm income for their livelihood. Because small-farm households receive most of their income from off-farm work, general economic policies—such as tax...

Ano: 2010 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/96653 Agricultural Contracting Update: Contracts in 2008 AgEcon MacDonald, James M.; Korb, Penelope J.. Marketing and production contracts covered 39 percent of the value of U.S. agricultural production in 2008, up from 36 percent in 2001, and a substantial increase over 28 percent in 1991 and 11 percent in 1969. However, aggregate contract use has stabilized in recent years and no longer suggests a strong trend. Contracts between farmers and their buyers are reached prior to harvest (or before the completion stage for livestock)and govern the terms under which products are transferred from the farm. Contracts are far more likely to be used on large farms than on small farms, and they form one element in a package of risk management tools available to farmers. Production contracts are used widely in livestock production, while marketing contracts are...

Ano: 2011 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/101279 Farm Structural Change in German Regions - An Empirical Analysis using Micro and Macro Data AgEcon Zimmermann, Andrea; Heckelei, Thomas. General economic developments as well as recent fundamental changes in the Common Agricultural Policy will likely impact significantly on the European farm structure. Although a decline of total farm numbers continues to be the general observation, important differences occur across regions and farm types. These differentiated developments and their determinants are of high relevance for policy impact assessment at the regional level. The main objective of the analysis provided in this paper is to empirically identify whether regionally specific characteristics account for differences in regional farm structure development. This is exemplarily shown for German FADN regions. As methodological approach a combined time series, cross-sectional Markov chain...

Ano: 2008 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/44049 Production Contracts and Farm Business Growth and Survival AgEcon Key, Nigel D.. In recent decades there has been a substantial increase in the scale of production and the use of production contracts in the hog sector. This paper explores empirically whether these two phenomena are related by examining whether the use of production contracts has allowed finish hog operations to expand in scale. The study takes advantage of recently collected information from the Census of Agriculture that permits a comparisons of individual independent and contract hog producers over time. The study first examines whether operations that used a contract grew at a faster rate or had lower exit rates over the subsequent five-year period than did operations that produced independently, controlling for observable factors. The study then examines how the...

Ano: 2010 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/61022 THE IMPACTS OF DIRECT PAYMENTS ON ROMANIAN FARM INCOME: WHO BENEFITS FROM THE CAP? AgEcon Cionga, Cristina; Luca, Lucian; Hubbard, Carmen. Using the most recent available data, this paper assesses who is likely to benefit, in the short-term, from the implementation of the CAP in Romania. Particularly, it focuses on the distributional impacts of the new form of agricultural subsidies under the CAP, i.e. SAPS and CNDP, identifying the main gainers and losers. Preliminary results reveal a highly uneven distribution of subsidies across farms, with the very large-scale ones, particularly those specialised in so-called “energy” crops, benefiting most from the flat rate direct aid. As a result, the existing gap between Romanian low-income and high-income farms will become larger, with those most vulnerable hardly benefiting from the introduction of (national and EU) direct payments.

A rendszeres mezőgazdasági adatgyűjtések közel kétszáz éves múltra tekintenek vissza. Az 1828-tól végrehajtott felmérések a földhasználatra, növénytermelésre és az állattartásra terjedtek ki, az első „földhasználati regisztert” – az ideiglenes föld¬katasztert – 1853-ban állították fel. A szőlőterületekre, borászatra vonatkozó első statisztikát Magyarország – nemzetközi felkérésre – 1873-ban dolgozta ki, illetve hajtotta végre. A 19. század végére már Európa-szerte egyre nagyobb igény merült fel a mezőgazdasági tevékenység, a mezőgazdasági termelés részletesebb megismerésére. Az első magyar – általános – mezőgazdasági cenzus rendszerét Keleti Károly, az önálló magyar statisztikai hivatal első elnöke személyes vezetésével dolgozták ki. A nagy volumenű munka...

Ano: 2010 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/99127 Kié lesz a föld? AgEcon Csete, Laszlo; Barcza, Gabriella. Eltelt két évtized és hazánk, valamint az agrárvilág újra attól hangos, mint két évtizeddel ezelőtt, hogy kié lesz a föld? Ebben sok minden közrejátszott, de mindenekelőtt az, hogy a rendszerváltozáshoz ziláltan érkezett az agrárgazdaság, a vidék, s a földek reprivatizációja helyett kárpótlásra került sor, elmaradt a parasztság rehabilitációja, s főleg hogy egyetlen kormány sem foglalkozott stratégiai, szociális, környezetfenntartó súlyának megfelelően a vidékkel, a mezőgazdasággal. Ugyan 2001-ben lépéseket kezdeményeztek a családi gazdaságok felkarolására, de ez nem folytatódott. Nem jött létre korszerű üzemi szerkezet, a gazdák tőke- és tudáshiánnyal küszködnek, és összefogás, hatásos érdekképviselet, érdekérvényesítő képesség híján kiszolgáltatottak a...

Ano: 2010 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/99188 The Changing Economics of U.S. Hog Production AgEcon Key, Nigel D.; McBride, William D.. The increasing size and specialization of hog operations reflect structural change in U.S. swine production during the past 15 years. The number of farms with hogs has declined by over 70 percent, as hog enterprises have grown larger. Large operations that specialize in a single phase of production have replaced farrow-to-finish operations that performed all phases of production. The use of production contracts has increased. Operations producing under contract are larger than independent operations and are more likely to specialize in a single phase of production. These structural changes have coincided with substantial gains in efficiency for hog farms and lower production costs. Most of these productivity gains are attributable to increases in the scale...

Ano: 2007 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/6389 Structure and Finances of U.S. Farms: 2005 Family Farm Report AgEcon Hoppe, Robert A.; Banker, David E.. Most farms in the United States—98 percent in 2003—are family farms. They are organized as proprietorships, partnerships, or family corporations. Even the largest farms tend to be family farms, although they are more likely to have more than one operator. Very large family farms and nonfamily farms account for a small share of farms but a large—and growing—share of farm sales. Small family farms account for most of the farms in the United States but produce a modest share of farm output. Median income for farm households is 10 percent greater than the median for all U.S. households, and small-farm households receive substantial off-farm income. Many farm households have a large net worth, reflecting the land-intensive nature of farming.

Ano: 2006 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/59404 The Situation of Hungarian Agriculture AgEcon Burger, Anna. Hungarian agriculture has gone thru a long and difficult development since the First World War. The semi-feudal agriculture of the Horthy era between the two World Wars was followed by a land distribution after the Second World War, which created an agricultural system dominated by smallholders. However, the small farms were soon collectivized. Despite the forced collectivization, the large farms developed well and the living standard of the peasantry grew significantly. After the collapse of socialism in Hungary in 1990, political parties decided again to restructure agriculture. A new land distribution was carried out which created an agricultural system based on smallholdings. On the mostly too small, scattered holdings, the technical and technological...

Ano: 2009 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/90651 The Transformation of U.S. Livestock Agriculture: Scale, Efficiency, and Risks AgEcon MacDonald, James M.; McBride, William D.. U.S. livestock production has shifted to much larger and more specialized farms, and the various stages of input provision, farm production, and processing are now much more tightly coordinated through formal contracts and shared ownership of assets. Important financial advantages have driven these structural changes, which in turn have boosted productivity growth in the livestock sector. But structural changes can also generate environmental and health risks for society, as industrialization concentrates animals and animal wastes in localized areas. This report relies on farm-level data to detail the nature, causes, and effects of structural changes in livestock production.

Ano: 2009 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/58311 America's Diverse Family Farms: Structure and Finances AgEcon Hoppe, Robert A.; MacDonald, James M.; Banker, David E.. American farms vary widely in size and other characteristics, but farming is still an industry of family businesses. Ninety-eight percent of farms are family farms, and they account for 86 percent of farm production. Very small farms are growing in number, and small family farms continue to own most farmland. But production is shifting toward very large family farms. Because small-farm households receive most of their income from off-farm work, general economic policies—such as tax policy or economic development policy—can be as important to them as traditional farm policy.

The structure of farms, farm households, and the rural communities in which they exist has evolved markedly over the last century. Historical data on a range of farm structure variables—including the value of agricultural production, commodity specialization, farming-dependent counties, and off-farm work—offer a perspective on the long-term forces that have helped shape the structure of agriculture and rural life over the past century. These forces include productivity growth, the increasing importance of national and global markets, and the rising influence of consumers on agricultural production. Within this long-term context of structural change, a review of some key developments in farm policy considers the extent to which farm policy design has or has...

Ano: 2007 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/7838 Million-Dollar Farms in the New Century AgEcon Hoppe, Robert A.; Korb, Penelope J.; Banker, David E.. Million-dollar farms—those with annual sales of at least $1 million—accounted for about half of U.S. farm sales in 2002, up from a fourth in 1982 (with sales measured in constant 2002 dollars). By 2006, million-dollar farms, accounting for 2 percent of all U.S. farms, dominated U.S. production of high-value crops, milk, hogs, poultry, and beef. The shift to million-dollar farms is likely to continue because they tend to be more profitable than smaller farms, giving them a competitive advantage. Most million-dollar farms (84 percent) are family farms, that is, the farm operator and relatives of the operator own the business. The million-dollar farms organized as nonfamily corporations tend to have no more than 10 stockholders.

Ano: 2008 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/58623 Profile of Hired Farmworkers, A 2008 Update AgEcon Kandel, William. Hired farmworkers make up a third of the total agricultural labor force and are critical to U.S. agricultural production, particularly in labor-intensive sectors such as fruits and vegetables. The hired farmworker labor market is unique because it includes a large population of relatively disadvantaged and often unauthorized workers, a portion of whom migrate to, and within, the United States. Recent economic and demographic trends, such as changing agricultural production methods that permit year-round employment, expanding immigrant populations in nonmetropolitan counties, and growing concerns over U.S. immigration policies, have elicited increased interest in hired farmworkers. This 2008 profile serves as an update to the 2000 Economic Research Service...

A földet elsősorban mint termelési eszközt értelmezve, a pragmatikus gondolkodást és nem a nosztalgiát tartom célravezetőnek. Ismeretes, hogy két elgondolás él a köztudatban. Egyik a liberális földfelfogás, amely szerint a föld olyan termelési eszköz, mellyel más termelési eszközökhöz hasonlóan profitot lehet termelni, amely biztosítja a klasszikus értelemben vett bővített újratermelést. A másik nézet a közgazdasági kategóriákat mellőzve a földet a nemzet kincsének, a paraszti lét alapjának, az élet megtestesítőjének tekinti. Amennyiben ez utóbbi teória eltekint a földnek, mint termelési eszköznek objektív tulajdonságaitól, melyek akaratunktól függetlenül működnek, oda jutunk, ahol ma a magyar mezőgazdaság leledzik, vagyis néhány alapanyag kivételével...

Ano: 2010 URL: http://purl.umn.edu/99198 Growing Farm Size and the Distribution of Farm Payments AgEcon MacDonald, James M.; Hoppe, Robert A.; Banker, David E.. Crop production is shifting to much larger farms. Since government commodity payments reflect production volumes for program commodities, payments are also shifting to larger farms. In turn, the operators of very large farms have substantially higher household incomes than other farm households, and as a result government commodity payments are also shifting to much higher-income households. Since the changes in farm structure appear to be ongoing, commodity payments will likely, under current policies, continue to shift to higher income households. This brief uses 2003 Agricultural Resource Management Survey (ARMS) data to detail the shifts.
