Excerpt from Improving Incomes of Farm People in Northern and Western Florida
Income from farming is low in northern and western Florida. Farmers in this area contribute less than a tenth to total income. Personal income from Govern ment payments exceeds any other single source of income in northern and western Florida. This is due partly to location within the area of several State colleges and universities, the State capital, and several large military installations that hire civilian employees.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents an economic analysis of low-income farm communities in northern and western Florida. The author examines resource allocation, labor, capital, and community development while exploring income disparities in the region. By comparing the resources at hand to the region's economic development, the author assesses the potential for farmers to improve their financial situations and identifies barriers to growth. The analysis also considers agriculture's decline as a primary industry and the impact of low farm income on local economies. The author suggests that nonfarm employment may provide more feasible financial solutions than traditional farming, and explores opportunities in forestry and recreation as alternatives to farming. This book is an insightful resource for those seeking to understand rural economic development, income inequality, and the challenges faced by low-income farming communities.
