Farmers Displaced in Economically Depressed Times.

Rathge, Richard W.; And Others

Rural Sociology, v53 n3 p346-56 Fall 1988

Compares the socioeconomic characteristics of dislocated farm households in North Dakota with working farm households. Finds no significant difference between operating methods of displaced farmers and those currently in business. Suggests researchers shift their attention to macrolevel variables to characterize displaced farmers. (Author/TES)
