Excerpt from Agricultural Economics Research, Vol. 1: April 1949
The number of farm - owned motortrucks has been reported by the Census Bureau for many years, but no statistics on a broad scale have been available regarding trailers, which are significant as substitutes for trucks. Furthermore, neither the number of vehicles nor their distribution among farms is a reliable indicator of the extent to which farmers are dependent upon for-hire truckers and buyers for the initial haulage.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a detailed examination of two groundbreaking enumerative surveys, which obtained interviews with farmers across the U.S. in 1947 and 1948. These surveys gathered data on a wide range of topics, many of which were not well-documented elsewhere. The data collected includes insights into farm population, farm employment and wages, livestock numbers, farm tractors, and crop acreages, among other subjects. The author analyzes the methodology used in these surveys to demonstrate how researchers can create scientifically-sound, comprehensive surveys without relying on mailed inquiries. The result is a valuable resource for statisticians, researchers, and historians interested in learning about the efficacy of enumerative surveys, as well as the economic landscape of the U.S. during the mid-20th century. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
