Agricultural Geography: A Social and Economic Analysis

By Brian W. Ilbery

The first book on agricultural geography to adopt a primarily behavioral perspective, Agricultural Geography demonstrates that a realistic understanding of agricultural land-use patterns can be obtained only by examining farmers' reactions to, and perceptions of, changing economic circumstances. Focusing on developed market economies and includes important farm-based research, conducted primarily in the United States, Great Britain, and Europe, Ilbery also provides insight into the modernization of agriculture and charts the changes in agricultural geography over time.
