29 Ag and rural consolidation is a potential implication of a prolonged downturn. Number of Farms by Economic Class Index, 2 = 1 Index, 2 = More than $1m Northern Plains $5k to $1m Southern Plains $25k to $5k Heartland $1k to $25k 3 Less than $1k Total Number of Farms Source: USDA. Source: USDA.

31 Concluding Remarks Economic growth in the U.S. continues, driven largely by urban areas concentrated in service-based industries. The recent downturn in the rural/ag economy would have been more severe if farmland values dropped more significantly. Although the outlook for ag is not a crisis, there is potential for further consolidation.
