Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book meticulously analyzes the United States Department of Agriculture's (USDA) national program to target its soil conservation efforts on critical resource problem areas from 1981 onward. The author examines the delivery system used in implementing the targeting program, changes in farmers' use of recommended erosion control practices, and the impacts on farm income and productivity. By studying how targeting operated at state and county levels, the author provides a unique perspective on the distinctive features of targeted programs, similarities and differences among targeted delivery systems, and how targeted programs differed from non-targeted programs. The book also evaluates the criteria and processes used in selecting targeted areas and allocating resources to them, offering valuable suggestions for improving both aspects. Ultimately, this book provides a comprehensive understanding of the USDA's targeting program, its successes, challenges, and implications for the future of soil conservation efforts.
