O'Donoghue [and others] -- Trends in U.S. farmland values and ownership / Cynthia Nickerson [and others]. 330 $aThis book examines the changes and trends in farming and farmland in the United States. Innovations in farm organization, business arrangements, and production practices have allowed farmers to produce more with less. Fewer labor hours and less land are used today than 30 years ago, and practices such as the use of genetically engineered seeds and no-till have dampened increases in machinery, fuel, and pesticide use. Likely aided by the increased use of risk management tools such as contracts and crop insurance, U.S. agricultural productivity has increased by nearly 50 percent since 1982. Future innovations will be necessary to maintain, or boost, current productivity gains in order to meet the growing global demands that will be placed upon U.S. agriculture. 410 0$aAgriculture issues and policies series. 606 $aAgriculture$zUnited States 606 $aAgriculture$zUnited States$vStatistics 615 0$aAgriculture 615 0$aAgriculture 676 $a630.973 701 $aIglehart$b Calvin$01552272 701 $aZsofka$b Grant J$01552273 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910779794003321 996 $aFarming and farmland in the United States$93812096 997 $aUNINA LEADER 05653nam 2200721Ia 450 001 9910973067603321 005 20251117091227.0 010 $a1-299-19152-5 010 $a0-8165-0228-5 035 $a(CKB)2550000000051140 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000529896 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11339029 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000529896 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10560736 035 $a(PQKB)10034487 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC3411743 035 $a(OCoLC)754718551 035 $a(MdBmJHUP)muse13326 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL3411743 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10491791 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL450402 035 $a(OCoLC)923437705 035 $a(BIP)46506585 035 $a(BIP)27708610 035 $a(EXLCZ)992550000000051140 100 $a20090820d2010 ub 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcn||||||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 00$aAcross a great divide $econtinuity and change in native North American societies, 1400-1900 /$fedited by Laura L.

Silliman. 330 $aArchaeological research is uniquely positioned to show how native history and native culture affected the course of colonial interaction, but to do so it must transcend colonialist ideas about Native American technological and social change. This book applies that insight to five hundred years of native history. Using data from a wide variety of geographical, temporal, and cultural settings, the contributors examine economic, social, and political stability and transformation in indigenous societies before and after the advent of Europeans and document the diversity of native colonial experiences. The book's case studies range widely, from sixteenth-century Florida, to the Great Plains, to nineteenth-century coastal Alaska. The contributors address a series of interlocking themes. Several consider the role of indigenous agency in the processes of colonial interaction, paying particular attention to gender and status. Others examine the ways long-standing native political economies affected, and were in turn affected by, colonial interaction. A third group explores colonial-period ethnogenesis, emphasizing the emergence of new native social identities and relations after 1500. The book also highlights tensions between the detailed study of local cases and the search for global processes, a recurrent theme in postcolonial research. If archaeologists are to bridge the artificial divide separating history from prehistory, they must overturn a whole range of colonial ideas about American Indians and their history. This book shows that empirical archaeological research can help replace long-standing models of indigenous culture change rooted in colonialist narratives with more nuanced, multilinear models of change--and play a major role in decolonizing knowledge about native peoples. 410 0$aAmerind studies in archaeology ;$v4. 606 $aIndians of North America$xSocial conditions 606 $aIndians of North America$xColonization$xSocial aspects 606 $aIndians of North America$xCultural assimilation 606 $aSocial archaeology$zNorth America 606 $aSocial change$zNorth America 607 $aNorth America$xColonization$xSocial aspects 615 0$aIndians of North America$xSocial conditions. 615 0$aIndians of North America$xColonization$xSocial aspects. 615 0$aIndians of North America$xCultural assimilation. 615 0$aSocial archaeology 615 0$aSocial change 676 $a305.897 701 $aScheiber$b Laura L$01809325 701 $aMitchell$b Mark D$01820368 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910973067603321 996 $aAcross a great divide$94475578 997 $aUNINA
