Tenancy Prevalent Among Dairy Farmers Says Blue Valley Institute
A Blue Valley Creamery Institute declaration based on Census Bureau income sources finds tenancy higher among dairy farmers. From 1880 to 1900 tenancy rose from 25.8 to 28.4 and then 35.9 percent while owner-operated farms grew 83.5 percent.
