Virginia Farmers Progress Amid Agricultural Struggles
The report notes modest declines in farm bankruptcies and bank failures in Virginia compared with the United States, highlights Virginia’s lead in food production efficiency, and shows increases in soil improving crops and poultry and dairy output. It also cites cooperative purchasing growth and the impact of county agents on legume planting and unit production, while warning that overall agricultural progress remains relative and Virginia’s farming still has unrealized potential.

Virginia Farmers face dwindling soil fertility and low yields
A Virginia agricultural survey details only 4.6 million acres cultivated as improved land in 1920, with low legume use and rising soil erosion. It notes average yields for wheat, corn, hay, and potatoes are not paying costs, dairy cows underproduce, and many farmers lack market orientation. The piece calls for a statewide education campaign and support for a long term agricultural development program to raise profitability and rural prosperity.
