Impacts of Extreme Weather on Farmer Mental Health
Due to high-stress agricultural working environments, farmers are at high risk for mental illness, including anxiety, depression, and suicide. These challenges are exacerbated by rural settings with limited access to mental healthcare and pervasive mental health stigma. An area of increasing interest is how climate change impacts, such as drought, extreme temperatures, and changing seasons, impact farmer mental health and well-being. Utilizing a …
New insights on the role of the farm household-farm operation interface in family farm persistence and a call for future research
A systematic review of cultural capital in U.S. community development research
Farm households and the elusiveness of social sustainability
Childcare for farm families
Despite long-standing safety recommendations that non-working children be supervised off the worksite by an adult, little is known about farm families' ability to comply. We conducted a review of 92 documents and 36 key informant interviews in three U.S. states (Ohio, Vermont, and Wisconsin) to assess how farm service providers and farm organizations address the intersection of children and childcare with farm work and farm safety in programming.…
The invisible labor and multidimensional impacts of negotiating childcare on farms
Social science inquiries of American agriculture have long recognized the inextricability of farm households and farm businesses. Efforts to train and support farmers, however, often privilege business realm indicators over social issues. Such framings implicitly position households as disconnected from farm stress or farm success. This article argues that systematically tracing the pathways between farm households and farm operations represents …
Agriculture, health insurance, human capital and economic development at the rural-urban-interface
Redefining the Farmer-Processor Relationship
This article examines, from the viewpoint of a core group of Vermont milk producers, the period in the mid-1990s when organic dairy became mainstream. We look at the rise and subsequent takeover of one of the first organic milk-processing companies, The Organic Cow of Vermont, through the eyes of the farmers involved. In so doing, we provide needed perspective on the role of food producers working in industries subject to growth and consolidation…
Environmental justice and citizen perceptions of a proposed electric transmission line
This research sought to understand public perceptions of the decision-making process over a controversial high-voltage electric transmission line proposed in New Hampshire in the northeastern United States. These perceptions were gauged through an analysis of comments made by citizens during public meetings held for the project. The findings show that while public managers, utilities, and developers often cite the physical aspects of energy proje…
The Differing Values of Multigeneration and First-Generation Farmers
Recognizing the inherent pressures on farm families and farmland, USDA has been developing policies and programs that simultaneously attempt to retain existing farm families on the landscape, recruit new farmers, and create lasting economic opportunities rooted in agriculture. In this article we argue that to date there has been an overemphasis on economic and structural approaches and a systematic discounting of the way individual farmer and far…
