Abstract

One-man farms that are technically optimum in size are presented in seven examples. Discussed are changes and underlying causes, the economies associated with buying and selling, and diseconomies. Returns to operator labor, to operator management, and to land on the technically optimum farms are compared with both larger and smaller farms.
