They then estimated the economic value of the soil based on its role as a carbon sink, a source of raw materials (such as clay or gravel), and its use for food production. To simplify their analysis, the researchers assumed that all lost agricultural land had been used to grow wheat, the dominant crop in the region. The analysis showed that ...
Therefore, soybean farmers have supported a survey of the quality of the U.S. crop since 1986. This annual quality report provides a measure of the overall value of the U.S. crop relative to previous years and identifies regional variation so that purchasers may target locations to source soybeans and soybean products that best fit their needs. ...
