North Carolina Ranks Last in Agricultural Research Funding
The 1930 study by the U S Department of the Interior shows North Carolina, despite a large farm population, allocates the least funds to agricultural research among southern states. Total state and department support for NC agricultural research is about 178 000 yearly, less than two tenths of a cent per dollar in taxes, with Georgia and Florida funding higher shares. Arkansas similarly trails NC, while U S Department of Agriculture assistance keeps some progress alive.
