A propos de cet article

Print on Demand. This book, an analysis of the economic conditions of American farm youth in the early 20th century, presents staggering statistics to show the decreasing opportunities for young people in agriculture. As the efficiency of farming increased, fewer workers were required to produce the same amount of food, leading to a decline in the proportion of the population engaged in agriculture. In addition, the expansion of agriculture into new lands was reaching its limits and large-scale immigration from Europe was slowing down. The author argues that these trends would result in a significant increase in the number of farm youth who would have to leave the farm to find work. For those boys and girls, accumulation of capital and selection of a life partner were the most pressing concerns. However, the author notes that the extension programs of the time, while providing valuable skills in farming and homemaking, did not adequately address these challenges. The book concludes that the choices made by farm youth during this period would profoundly shape the future of American agriculture and rural life. It highlights the importance of providing young people with guidance and support as they navigate the complexities of economic and social change, a challenge that remains relevant today as the agricultural industry continues to evolve. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.…
