Abstract
The reciprocal cause and effect relationship between the structure of US agriculture and world trade is the central theme of this paper. The author highlights those dimensions of the structure which could have a significant impact on trade: farm numbers and size, ownership and control of farmland, changes in the value of production assets, proprietors' equity in farm assets, ownership of farm debt, sources of operating funds, changes in farm employment, changes in production technology, coordination of production and marketing, changes in the structure of commodity markets. The concluding section briefly assesses which of these factors have a major effect on trade.
