Abstract

Employment changes in farm and farm-related industries reveal the restructuring of agriculture's linkages to the U.S. economy. Agricultural production jobs have declined in reaction to laborsaving technological advancements and periods of unfavorable economic conditions. Some farm-related industries have also declined or remained stable, but other industries that process, market, and sell agricultural products have experienced employment growth. These employment changes vary by direction and intensity between metro and nonmetro areas and among farm production regions.
