The update to 1986 provides a base for effectively planning rural development. The report reveals that between 1979 and 1986 the number of farming, manufacturing, and mining counties dropped steeply, while the number of specialized government counties and unclassified counties grew. 000278329 546__ $$aEnglish 000278329 650__ $$aCommunity/Rural/Urban Development 000278329 650__ $$aFood Security and Poverty 000278329 650__ $$aPublic Economics 000278329 6531_ $$aEconomic base 000278329 6531_ $$aunclassified 000278329 6531_ $$afarming 000278329 6531_ $$agovernment 000278329 6531_ $$aFederal lands 000278329 6531_ $$amanufacturing 000278329 6531_ $$amining 000278329 6531_ $$arural development 000278329 6531_ $$astructural diversity 000278329 6531_ $$apoverty 000278329 6531_ $$aretirement areas 000278329 700__ $$aHady, Thomas F. 000278329 700__ $$aRoss, Peggy J. 000278329 8560_ $$fweidm015@umn.edu 000278329 8564_ $$9c9bf4be3-3329-40bd-aa4d-152f1534c472$$s5340285$$uhttps://ageconsearch.umn.edu/record/278329/files/ers-report-464.pdf 000278329 909CO $$ooai:ageconsearch.umn.edu:278329$$pGLOBAL_SET 000278329 913__ $$aBy depositing this Content ('Content') in AgEcon Search, I agree that I am solely responsible for any consequences of uploading this Content to AgEcon Search and making it publicly available, and I represent and warrant that: I am either the sole creator and the owner of the copyrights and all other rights in the Content; or, without obtaining another’s permission, I have the right to deposit the Content in an archive such as AgEcon Search.
