THE STATUS OF MINORITY FARMS IN THE UNITED STATES, 1974
2018
Thompson, Allen R. | Green, Michael
This report, based principally on unpublished tabulations from the 1974 Census of Agriculture, discusses and compares incomes and operations of over 76,000 minority farmers who control 13 million acres of farmland and who sold $1.1 billion of agricultural products. Compared to the average farm, blacks, American Indians and Hispanics have lower total incomes and lower farm incomes. Orientals have higher economic positions than other minorities and all farms. Minority farm operators have higher average incomes than their non-farm counterparts. Limited quantity of resources, including land, is a serious constraint on the total income of minorities. Each group on the average appears to do well, given their available resources.
