Excerpt from The One-Man Farm<br/><br/>The results at first seemed startling, particularly in view of the aggregate statistics on farm size in the United States. But one-man farms this large are already found in many farming communities. At the same time, we would caution the reader, as has the author, that on e-man farms this large require managerial skills well above average, achievable by only a minority of the present and would-be farm operators. And yet in each community there probably are enough farm operators with sufficient managerial skills to provide a steady competitive pressure for buying or controlling farmland as it becomes available for transfer. This is the most significant explanation of why farms in general are becoming larger. The intended audience for this essay is the general public. Professional agriculturalists should be aware that the figures in the examples are generalized and not intended to precisely depict widely varying individual farm situations.
