U.S. agriculture shrugs off the drought


Abstract: Bolstered by strong crop prices and some continued federal assistance in 1988, U.S. agriculture effectively shrugged off the worst drought since the 1930s. The farm outlook for 1989 remains bright. Overall, U.S. agriculture should enjoy a third straight year of broad-based recovery.
