Abstract

This paper reviews the anthropological literature relating to culture and modern capital intensive farming in North America. The author argues that there is a legitimate niche for anthropological enquiry in spite of the dominance of Agricultural Economics and Rural Sociology. Domains of enquiry that are advocated include: holistic community studies, studies of cultural and historical developments of agricultural practices, farm unit ethnographies, comparative regional analyses, examination of agrarian values and applied advocacy research.
