The Changing Corn Belt and a Call for Intensive Farming
A midwestern farming vision argues America must transform agriculture into an efficient food-manufacturing system to meet rising population and expanding world markets. It urges drainage, high quality seeds, livestock, managed pastures, and fertilization to boost yields and outpace Europe, with emphasis on intensive, knowledge-driven farming. The piece cites Dickinson on fertilizer use, notes census trends toward smaller, more productive farms, and contrasts New England’s higher yields with midwestern practices.
