Economic Adjustments on Farms in Southeastern South Dakota

Farms located in Lincoln, Clay and Union counties near Beresford, South Dakota, were studied in detail during 1928. The results of the study furnished the basis for this bulletin. Farms representative of size, practices, tenure and present farming systems were selected so that the data obtained would be of greatest value. Receipts and expenditures, labor, feed and other requirements common on the farms studied have been used in outlining the suggested systems and in making up the budgets included.
