Abstract

Eleven million people lived in households associated with farming by residence, occupation, or income in 1983. Alternative criteria developed in this report yield a farm resident population of 5.6 million in March 1983, a farm occupation population of 7.4 million, and a farm income population of 6.3 million. Differences noted between the farm occupation population and farm resident and income populations relate primarily to the farmworker component of the farm occupation population. This report uses data from the March 1983 Current Population Survey of the Bureau of the Census.
