Progress and prospects of Canadian agriculture / by W.M. Drummond and W. Mackenzie.: Z1-1955/2-41-18E-PDF

"In this study of agriculture we have attempted to determine and describe the way in which the agricultural industry in Canada will develop during the next 25 years. The report on the study falls into four parts. Part I deals with the changing structure of the agricultural industry. In Part II we include a number of studies which are designed to bring out regional differences. Part III is concerned with marketing and farm incomes. The final Part, Chapter 14, consists of a discussion of problems which will perhaps persist, but for which it may be hoped some workable solutions can be found"--Introduction, page 1.
