Extractions: ALABAMA AGRICULTURE, 1820-1945 From statehood (1819) until the end of World War II, nothing influenced Alabama's economic, social, and political life more than agriculture. Before the Civil War, climate, soil, and market demand fostered cotton cultivation, which brought with it slavery and a paternalistic social order. After the war, white and black tenant farmers replaced slave labor, the price of cotton dropped, and grass-roots agrarian unrest followed. Government and business interests combined to gain control of agricultural policy during the early twentieth century, which they retained through the end of World War II. By that time, mechanization, rural to urban migration, and crop diversification had altered Alabama agriculture, but farm and forest products remained central to the state's economy and those who had an economic interest in them still had a political voice as strong as any. Extensive white settlement of Alabama followed the War of 1812 and the defeat of the Creek Nation. Most of the settlers came from North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia, pushed by land exhausted through the over-cultivation of cotton and drawn by the rich soil of the Tennessee Valley and the Black Belt. They brought with them slave labor and the plantation system, which were readily transplanted in Alabama. Steady demand for cotton made this product the nation's leading export during the first half of the nineteenth century and solidified the planter elite's sense of self-importance. On the eve of the Civil War, however, Alabama was only one generation removed from the frontier and most of the state's farmers owned few, if any, slaves.

Extractions: Alabama Agriculture in the Classroom(AITC) is an interdisciplinary educational program that promotes Ag literacy for students in all grade levels K-12. AITC was incorporated as a non-profit foundation in 1987 for the purpose of making students aware of the importance of agriculture in their daily lives. All the AITC materials are designed by curriculum specialists and are ready for teacher use with little or no extra preparation. Each year a number of workshops are held to provide Alabama's teachers with AITC materials at no charge. In 1998, a total of 1,128 teachers from 67 counties participated in the workshops.

http://www.ag.auburn.edu/aaes/communications/highlights/winter99/structuralchang

Extractions: 1992 to 1997 Noel Thompson, John Dunkelberger, and Lavaughn Johnson A n important change occurred in the way the 1997 Agricultural Census was conducted. Prior censuses of agriculture were conducted by the Bureau of the Census, U.S. Department of Commerce. But the U.S. Congress mandated that the 1997 Census of Agriculture be conducted by the U.S. Department of Agriculture's National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS) utilizing the resources and experience of its state offices. It was believed that familiarity with particular state conditions, tested in-state collection processes, and credibility with farm operators would improve the rate of participation and completeness of the census. This procedural change was expected to and did produce differences in results compared to past censuses. No states reported greater differences from 1992 to 1997 than Alabama. The nature of these differences is the focus of this article. Changes in Alabama farms

Extractions: U.S. HOUSE PASSES ANNUAL FARM SPENDING BILL WITH $4.5 MILLION FOR ALABAMA AGRICULTURE RESEARCH Congressman Terry Everett, R-Enterprise, praised the U.S. House passage of the $74 billion Agriculture Appropriations Act of 2002 Wednesday which includes $4.5 million funding for beneficial agriculture research programs in Alabama. "The new agriculture appropriations bill that passed the House today not only addresses our nation's farm priorities, but funds a number of important research programs to be conducted in Alabama which will benefit our farmers," Congressman Everett said. "These programs, which range from ensuring the sustainability of the red snapper for commercial fishing to the possible reintroduction of a once profitable orange industry to the state's southern tier farmlands, are vital to our agriculture-dependent state economy," Everett added. "Agriculture research helps serve to restore productivity and profitability to farming," Everett noted. "As a member of the House Agriculture Committee, I am concerned about the current decline in prices for almost all farm commodities and the need for alternative crops that can produce a profit on small amounts of acreage.
