Provedor de dados: Research in Agricultural & Applied Economics (AgEcon Searh)
Autores: Heimlich,   Ralph E.; Barnard,   Charles H.
Metropolitan agriculture is not homogeneous.  This paper delves beneath metropolitan county averages using data on individual farms in the Northeast classified into three statistically distinct types.  A small group of adaptive farms profit from intensive production on smaller acreage to accommodate themselves to the urban environment.  Traditional farms have increased costs and pressures on their more extensive operations without compensating increases in revenue from better-adapted enterprises.  A large group of recreational farms subsidize small-farm activities from nonfarm income.  Operating characteristics of each farm type are presented and their importance to metropolitan agriculture is assessed.  Implications for preserving farming and farmland in...

To investigate the relative importance of preserving different amenities, this report examines the enabling legislation of these programs across the 48 contiguous States, and the implementation of these programs in five Northeastern States (Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Vermont). The report also assesses how farmland protection programs fit into the broader array of rural land...
