me predict what agriculture will
be like in the year 2040.’’
As more efficiencies develop in
the distribution process both
farmers and consumers will
benefit. Out of necessity much
more attention will begin to solve
soil and water conservation. There
will be new institutions to deal with
the problem of capital investment
in agriculture. There will be a new
spirit of cooperation between
farmers and people living in rural
communities. The family farm will

problem, the larger commercial
farms will still be family operated.

system available from the
production of food and fiber. Much
of the farm, directly old time
farming, is already gone. Even
more will disappear by 2040.
