Big Farm Store Blog

I am in desperate need of farm cash in facebook because you can buy farms and supplies around the farm. Im trying to beat my friend Amy Dougan. Please help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

the cash adds up so slowly, just one dollar per level. I spent most of mine on expanding my farm, and now I will never have that much again. The coins you can get oodles of though, especially harvesting some of those slow growing crops!

For such a program to be successful in raising the revenue of farmers, what must be true about the elasticity of demand?

Nothing.

One of the ways the federal government uses to restrict supply is tariffs. With a high enough tariff, domestic producers benefit no matter what the elasticity of demand.

Of course they may not benefit enough. Which is why the government props up farm income in other ways, including direct monetary subsidies, subsidized water, price floors, etc.

BTW, most of these do not benefit the "family farmer"; they benefit the agribusinesses that can make the big campaign contributions.

hey can someone pelase help me. i have science homework I have to find information on farming methods that have been introduced to increase food supply. If anyone knows any or has any links it’d be appreciated. Thanks
As far as dairy farming:

1. More sophisticated nutritional understanding and better diet rationing to improve production.

2. Although unpopular, artificial hormone injections.

3. Artificial insemination techniques that allow cows to be bred sooner after calving and therefore give birth more often, and therefore produce more milk. Artificial insemination also allows for better selective breeding to increase the species’ ability to produce more milk through genetics.
