Agr Agricu iculture lture Tren Trends ds - Con Conclu clusion sions
- Value of Agriculture production is increasing
while acreage is declining.
- High value per acre crops are better able to
compete with alternative land uses.
- Lower value per acre crops are the most
susceptible to conversion to non-agricultural uses.
- Incentives for agricultural land uses that
capitalize on the environmental benefits that agricultural land provides may assist in maintaining the economic viability of agriculture
