Abstract

The purpose of this study is to determine profitable erosion-control systems of fanning for operators with different amounts of capital and for two different sizes of farms. Emphasis is on profit maximization for the farm as a whole. Since Ida-Monona soils respond readily to fertilization, the plans considered allow an integration of investment in crops, fe1tilizer and livestock.
