of this study is to present the itost Sxcçortatrt prob

Ia of production ant aesteting that coxaf$Pt the tatters of Liken Connty,

south Caro&ir~0 together with nggestiozis that offer possibilitIes in the

solution of those probla~

The i~rt~ of this ctta8y is revealed by the fact that organ

ised efforts sang th. fatten in Liken Countj have not kept pace with the

tat techniques- of production and marketing which have developed along with

changes that have tAken place in our present economic pattern. Although

the scope of this stody is limited to Aflcen Ceznty1 the tact of its limi

tation, to this particular area is not intended to convey the ~sapreesion

that the próblen of fetters presented are peculiar t- Liken touzity alone,

Problems- similar to these of the tenor in Liken Cc~rnty ay be found to

ni-st en many terms in. the !kiited StAte-s end especially the Southern por*

tia.

the very zta.tw- of the study admits of certain limitations which

are listed as fbllefl:

1. Racial factors

2. Diverse t~ss of farm tsznwe

Farmers Cooperatives are suggested as meetis of helping the far

men of Liken County to inprove their economic status, Successful exper

degree of success in fatten cooperation has been realized among Important

An analysis of Table II inñicates some important, facts in re

lation to farm tenure, as it prowides the labor force t~ operate the

fans in Aiken County, The full owners constitute 30.1 per cent of the

operaton, with 44.1 per cent of the total value of land operated. The

value of lanti per acre for a full owner is $22.12. Thus, the full awn—

era in respect to the value of land per acre as well as the total value

of all lands operated have the highest value. These facts indicate the

importance of the full owners in embracing the possibilities of cooper

ation, Having full own,erehi~ with all rights accruing therefrom, this

class can completely control the long range ~anagenent policies, of

their farms as ‘sell as the day to day methods of operation to be used,

lIds gives them the opportunity of accepting any innovations and race

tices that may help to improve the efficiency ci’ production. As to the

size of a full owners farm, the average nunber of acres per operator is

152.8. As contrasted with a farm operated by a manager, the farm oper

ated by a full owner is small4 The average size of a farm operated by

• a manager is 659.8 acres, ticb is over four times the size of that of

a full owner. The value p~r acre of a farm operated by a manager is

t8$4. Thus, despite the tact that he operates a farm over tOur times

ultimate power of control and determination of polIcy will come from the

full owner class.

The table further shows that the tet*ent c3Ass, though conati—

ttrting 62.3 per cent of the operators~ has the smallest unitt operated of

any type. The avenge size of a tenant fart is 78.5 acres. The average

value per acre is $15J4, which is next to the lowest value of that :Qf

the part owners. The tenant class represents 42,5 per cent of the total

value of farms in the county, This class of operator represents a group

with the least control ad var-ging degrees of supervision ranging. from

little stwervision to ~t*y close supervidiot. by the landlord. Tenants.

usually have little or no authority in determining the policies under

which their farm shall be operated.

The part owner representing 7.0 per cent of the operators has

en average site of farm amounting to 160,9 acres~ The aterage value per

acre is ~4.95 which is the lowest for any of the operators. He further

accounts for 9.6 per cent of the total value of farm land. In view of

the above faets~ it seems logical to indicate that the realization of

economies of largeaseale operation of the individual farm units must come

through cooperation of the full owner class. Per it 5* this class that,

embrace ooperation if it is~ convinced that it is a desirable type of

organization for production; (2) the advantage possessed by this elan

in having the highest laud value per acre, largest per cent of tc€&l land

value seems to indicate superior resources which would be an advantage

in considering efficiency and eoonozçr in large scale production,

According to the Bureau of Census of 1955, the value of all

farms in Aiket County, including land and buildings, anoints to $6,688,666.

Table II shows that the average value per acre is $17.84. Lu Table III

it may be seen that the average value per fern is $I~745. When the land

value in Aiken County is compared with the land value of the state: as a

whole, the following -contrast is presented:

Value of Av. value Av. valueall tans per tan per acrer

State $285,516,575 $1,125 *23*16

Aiken County ~jj~ 6,888,666 *1,746 *17.84

It is significant to note that the average value per farm in Aiken County

is more than the average value per farm for- the state as a whole. Ho~m

ever, the -average value per acre in Aiken County is less than the average

value per acre for the state as a whole,

In the use at capital tools with which to produce his crops0 the

farmer of Aiken County has not made ertensive use of farm implements and

machinery* Table IV shows that only 20.1 per cent of the total number of

farms reported the use of fan implements and machinery. The amount per

farm reporting was $122.14. It is further wofly of note that the per—

•centage for iip~menis and, machinery is 8.7 per cent,

• Among the farmers ót Aiken Coimt~. fertilizer is an inportant

capital item in the process -of production, As may be seen in Table IV,

6b3 per cent of the total. farms reported fertilizer purchased to the

anoint of $57S~O38..- This iount represents 54,3 per cent of the total

capital expenditures., excluding land and buildings. The amount spent for

fertilizer per farm was $181.28. The tact that 83.3 per cent of the total

fans reported fertilizer p~wvhased, constituting 54.3 per cent of -the

-áapitai expenditure seemS to indicate that the quality of the soil demands
