Crop Yields In U S Show Farms Not Wearing Out Says Expert
Farm economist B O Weitz of the USDA Bureau of Agricultural Economics argues that American farming regions will exhibit rising yields per acre over generations as farmers gain experience with soils, varieties, fertilizers, and rotations. He cites 40 year data showing crop area expansion and total production up while acre yields rise, especially in older regions east of the Mississippi, with limits driven by moisture in drier areas.
