Casting Bread Upon the Water: Comments on Technology, Globalization, and Agriculture

Author

  • Duffy, Patricia A.

Abstract

The issues raised in this paper session—concerning technical change, globalization, and chronic low returns in agriculture—are of long-standing importance in our profession. The papers, like many policy discussions in our discipline, have focussed largely on the U.S. agricultural sector. In this comment I will make some remarks relative to the domestic situation, but would also like to branch out a bit to address the worldwide impact of changing technology and increasingly open markets.
