Popis:	This paper examines the impact of selected changes in agriculture on nonwhite farming in America during the period 1954–1978. The issues addressed relate to the decline in the number of farms, the decline in non‐white land ownership, and the general economic situation of nonwhite farm households. Comparisons are made of the plight of nonwhite and white farm(er)s within the context of overall structural changes in American agriculture–economic, social, and technological changes which resulted in an 83 percent decline in the number of nonwhite‐operated farms compared to a 44 percent decline in the number of farms operated by whites between 1954 and 1978.
