摘要

根据美国农业普查,2007年有294,000个农场的面积在10英亩或更少。虽然大多数小面积农场(SA)很少从事农业生产,但2007年大约有50,000个小面积农场的总销售额达到或超过10,000美元;3600家公司的总收入达到或超过50万美元。因此,有限的土地基础并不一定意味着低销量。本报告主要关注南方农场,特别是那些在某一年中收入超过1万美元的农场,并研究了诸如生产策略、产品类型、销售、家庭收入和财务绩效等特征。2007年销售额在1万至50万澳元之间的46,000个南澳农场主要从事花卉种植、树木苗圃和水果和蔬菜,而销售额至少为50万澳元的3,600个南澳农场主要从事家畜生产。SA农场只生产少量的大田作物,如小麦、玉米或棉花,这些作物需要大量的土地。

Working the Land with 10 Acres: Small Acreage Farming in the United States
According to the U.S. Census of Agriculture, 294,000 farms operated on 10 or fewer acres in 2007. While most small acreage (SA) operations did very little farming, approximately 50,000 SA farms had gross sales of $10,000 or more in 2007; 3,600 reported grossing $500,000 or more. Thus, a limited land base does not necessarily translate into low sales. This report focuses on SA farms, especially those grossing $10,000 or more in a given year, and examines such characteristics as production strategies, types of products, sales, household income, and financial performance. The 46,000 SA farms with sales between $10,000 and $500,000 in 2007 were primarily active in floriculture, tree nurseries, and fruits and vegetables, while the 3,600 SA farms with at least $500,000 in sales were primarily active in confined livestock production. SA farms produce only small amounts of field crops, such as wheat, corn, or cotton, which require larger amounts of land.
