Abstract

This study analyzes resource returns in four selected farming areas of the United States where the quantity and proportions of resources used and the commodities produced are quite different. The sample areas include the Alabama Piedmont, northern Iowa, a dry-land wheat area of Montana and southern Iowa. From farm samples in each area, production function and marginal resource productivities have been derived for different classes of inputs.
