Sinossi
Excerpt from Developmental Study of a Rural-Urban Trade Area
Business and other civic groups, both in city and country, can well afford to accept the challenge which these problems offer. By selecting for critical examination first one phase of the community's problems and then another, possibly reexamining conditions as changes seem to warrant, a community can keep its developmental program on a factual foundation.
The development of the present study was the outgrowth of the desire of the Moline Association of Commerce to do what it could, from a city angle, to contribute to the improvement of agricultural conditions in the farming area in which it is situated. Following pre liminary correspondence and discussions between the College of Agri culture of the University of Illinois and the officers of the Moline Association, a conference of the various agencies that it was believed would be interested in such a project was arranged in July, 1928. Representatives of the Rock Island County Farm Bureau, the Rock Island County Home Bureau, the Moline Association of Com merce, the Rock Island Chamber of Commerce, the University of Illi nois, the U. S. Department of Agriculture, the Illinois Chamber of Commerce, and the Chamber of Commerce of the United States were present at this or subsequent conferences. At the first conference it was agreed that before attempting to make recommendations looking toward the improving of farm conditions in the area, it would be necessary to secure more information concerning the local situation.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the agricultural economy of rural-urban areas in the Midwestern United States and uncovers profitable opportunities to develop the region's agricultural capacity. Decades of decline for farmers in the Midwest led to a novel study of agricultural conditions in a representative trade area. The author found that consumption patterns in urban areas were changing alongside farming techniques, and that improvements in both spheres can invigorate the agricultural economy. The author suggests improvements to transportation infrastructure, marketing strategies, and storage facilities. They also offer strategies to optimize crop production and selection to increase profits for farmers. The book concludes that a prosperous agriculture depends on the integration of urban consumer demand with rural production capacity, and offers specific and actionable recommendations to reach both goals.
