Howard Rogers discusses farm labor shortages in rural America, noting fewer workers, ad hoc wages, and empty cabins. He argues production will rise mainly through efficiency and mechanization, with tractors and trucks replacing multiple workers, while farmers adapt to modern methods to keep food output high.
The article argues that foreseeing farmers and factory workers would benefit from modern machinery, reducing labor and shortening work days. It notes larger units can help overcome labor shortages without necessarily cutting costs, while stressing fertilizer use, crop adaptation, better livestock, disease control, drainage, and farm machinery to sustain a stable food supply.
