All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

The kinds of agricultural commodities grown in an area result largely from the physical, economic, and institutional setting of the area.

The nature of the soil, the amount and the distribution of the precipitation, the topography of the area, and the length of the frost-free growing period are all important. Likewise, location with respect to markets and means of transportation is important, as are also the ownership of the land, the size of the farms, and the balance among the factors of production.
