In North Carolina, many small farms are confronted with financial challenges and the risk of collapse.

The findings reveal significant disparities in farm and operator characteristics. Specifically, first-generation and retiree farmers exhibit a lower likelihood of profitability. Conversely, factors positively associated with profitability include owning larger farm acreage, engaging in commercial agricultural production, utilizing paid family labor, practicing full-time farming, and being a non-White minority farmer. To foster the sustainability of small farms, it is imperative to implement policies that support full-time farming and incentivize the use of paid family labor.
