Its getting very competitive, capital intensive and companies have more resources and can spread then over a greater geographical area.  A good harvest in one area helps with a poor one in the other, next year it might be the reverse.\n\nFamily farm poor harvest means no income for that year plus interest on loans, puts you behind and harder to catch up.

the market price for such products are higher  \nthe way in which they are produced involves less intensive use of land, \nthe attainment of a better balance between supply of, and demand for, agriculture products, \nbetter protection of the environment.

Dairy farming has become big busines, and unless you can afford to invest in a large operation with hundreds of cows and the equipment that goes with it, it's almost impossible to make a living at it.\n\nYou might be able to do better with organic farming - raising cows that are grass fed and selling unpasteurized milk for people who are looking for that for health benefits.  Look for states where selling unpasteurized milk is legal - it is not in Colorado; here you have to buy an interest in the cow and pay monthly maintenance fees to get unpasteurized milk.

California has everything.  From the snow-capped peaks of Tahoe to the stunningly beautiful beaches of Malibu to the Mojave desert to the Redwood forests.  It's unbelievable and so varied.  Definitely California.

Probably mostly positive. The soil would be richer so plants would grow better making more food for all creatures locally. That would result in greater biodiversity.

Santa Cruz, CA\n\nWhy? Because we get everything good, beach, mountains, rain, sun, proximity to San Francisco, closeness to the Sierra's... There's a university and a community college, and you'll meet interesting people here. It's also a friendly place to raise a family. California is great as long as you stay away from LA!!

Because it is a suitable crop for that region. Rice is also grown in the USA

A. California - Even though Texas is larger in size, California has a larger population.

Because it receives the largest amount of rainfall due to the fact that its near the coast. Also, being near the coast allows for the soil to be more fertile, making it more productive for farming.

It must be working to some extint as a lot of fruit growers here in California had to just let their crops rot on the ground because they were unable to find pickers.  Why has noone come out about the OTHER ecomomic effects of this issue?  Only in America are people so air headed.
