Title
Potato Production and Farm Disposition, 1909-1950
Description
Table from an in-depth survey of agricultural records reveals transformations in the economics of farming. While overall potato production rose during the first half of the 20th century, the "disposition" of that production changed: a smaller percentage was used for seed or consumed in farm households. This is attributed to fewer, larger farms growing potatoes as a commodity.
