This report provides one view of the potential implications for U.S. agriculture if Americans changed their current consumption patterns to meet some of those guidelines. For Americans to meet the fruit, vegetable, and whole-grain recommendations, domestic crop acreage would need to increase by an estimated 7.4 million harvested acres, or 1.7 percent of total U.S. cropland in 2002. To meet the dairy guidelines, consumption of milk and milk products would have to increase by 66 percent; an increase of that magnitude would likely require an increase in the number of dairy cows as well as increased feed grains and, possibly, increased acreage devoted to dairy production. 517 1 $aReport from the Economic Research Service 606 $aDiet$zUnited States 606 $aAgricultural productivity$zUnited States 615 0$aDiet 615 0$aAgricultural productivity 700 $aBuzby$b Jean C$01386648 701 $aWells$b Hodan Farah$01386649 701 $aVocke$b Gary$01386650 712 02$aUnited States.$bDepartment of Agriculture.$bEconomic Research Service. 801 0$bANG 801 1$bANG 801 2$bGPO 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910696864803321 996 $aPossible implications for U.S. agriculture from adoption of select dietary guidelines$93435717 997 $aUNINA
