Forecast: Farms Grow Bigger but Fewer by 1980
Kellogg of Deere & Company predicts US farms will shrink to about 1.75 million by 1980 from 3.75 million in 1959, with per acre yields rising and demand up 50 percent. Harvested acreage could fall from 340 million acres in 1955 to 250 million by 1980, amid continued consolidation. Labor unions may organize Iowa farms like California, and farm wages could align more with urban areas.
