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.
