In the last 25 years, U.S. crop farms have steadily declined in number and grown in average size, as production has shifted to larger operations. Larger farms tend to receive more commodity program payments because most payments are tied to a farm's current or historical production, but whether payments have contributed to farm growth is uncertain. This study uses farm-level data from the census of agriculture to determine whether there is a statistical relationship between farm commodity program payments and greater concentration in production. The analysis indicates that, at the regional level, higher commodity program payments per acre are associated with subsequent farm growth. Also, higher payments per acre are associated with higher rates of farm survival and growth.

In this important book on the present situation and prospects of agriculture in post-independent Eritrea, Tesla Gebremedhin emphasizes the crucial role of this sector in the overall social and economic growth and development of the country. This is a timely book that addresses issues of economic recovery, widespread poverty, deep-rooted underdevelopment, women's rights, and progressive environmental degradation in the newly independent African nation. A comprehensive review of the characteristics of the technical and institutional constraints and economic potentials of agriculture for development is presented in detail. Appropriate strategy and practical policy options for achieving and maintaining sustainable agriculture and rural development are thoroughly discussed. The book also provides rigorous economic analysis and valuable insights into development dynamics of an agrarian society which are relevant to any developing country. In addition, in-depth examination is made of the country's historical social institutions and economic structures, its traditional and conventional systems of land tenure and land-use policy, and the current perspective of local administration. Tesfa has made an important contribution to the understanding of the agricultural sector as it relates to the economic and political development of post-independent Eritrea. The book concludes with significant policy recommendations for consideration by decision-makers as well as development workers.

This book explores the economic coping practices of rural widows in the aftermath of the Cambodian civil war. War produces a preponderance of widows, often young widows with small children in their care. Rural widows must feed their families and educate their children despite rural poverty and the lack of opportunities for women. The economics of widowhood is therefore a significant social problem in less developed countries. The widows' predominant economic plan was to combine rice cultivation with an assortment of microenterprises, a "rice plus" strategy. Many widows were unable to grow enough rice on their land to feed their families. They filled the hunger gap by raising cash through microenterprises to purchase additional rice. Gender work roles were both permeable and persistent, allowing a flexible sexual division of labor in the short run but maintaining traditional roles in the long run. Most widows called on relatives or exchanged transplanting labor for male plowing services, although a few women took up the plow themselves. The study also explores widows' access to key economic resources such as land, credit, and education. War decimated widows' family support networks, including the loss of children, their social security. The study concludes that Cambodia's gender arrangement offered many economic options to widows but also devalued their labor in a cultural structure of inequality. Gender, poverty, and war interacted to reduce widows' financial resources, accounting for their economic vulnerability.
