AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTION EFFICIENCY

Despite rising indexes of domestic agricultural "efficiency," a National Research Council committee studying aspects of the economics of U.S. agriculture and its scientific and technological base found no reason to believe that growth of either U.S. agricultural productivity or U.S. agricultural output generally is insured. This report by the NRC Board on Agricultural and Renewable Resources, offers a mixed appraisal of U.S. agricultural prospects.
