UW Stevens Point professor Boguslaw Galeski and UW Madison sociologist Eugene Wilkening summarize in a new book that family farming is shrinking worldwide as agriculture concentrates into large, nonfamily enterprises. They note policy gaps, rising off farm work, and growing control by agribusinesses in the United States, Canada and Britain, with Poland showing government attempts at large scale farming faltering.
