The 2003 Florida Land Value Survey results indicate that the value of agricultural land increased in all regions of the state during the past year. Survey respondents indicated that the increases in the value of agricultural lands were primarily due to a strong nonagricultural demand for land. The value of citrus land increased after declines for the past two years. Agricultural land values vary by the type of land use and geographic area. This is EDIS document FE439, a publication of the Department of Food and Resource Economics, Florida Cooperative Extension Service, UF/IFAS, University of Florida, Gainesville, FL.

The 2004 Florida Land Value Survey results indicate that the value of all types of agricultural land increased substantially in all regions of the state from 2003 to 2004. The market for agricultural land was very active this past year and the rate of increase in land values was particularly high in the South region. The percentage change in most categories was in the double-digits. Survey respondents indicated that increases in agricultural land values were primarily due to strong nonagricultural demand for land. Agricultural land values vary by the type of land use and geographic area. The survey results indicate that the average value for agricultural land ranges from approximately $1,500 per acre for unimproved pasture and farm woods in the Northwest region to over $6,500 for orange groves in the South region. This is EDIS document FE545, a publication of the Department of Food and Resource Economics, Florida Cooperative Extension Service, Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences, University of Florida, Gainesville, FL.

Over 99% of interstate shipments of Florida produce are by truck. Motor carriers do not magically know when there is a potential load they would find attractive. Rather, motor carriers and shipper/receivers must locate one another and negotiate terms, either directly or through an intermediary. This report will examine the methods used to arrange produce haulage and changes over the past two decades. This is EDIS document, FE540, a publication of the Department of Food and Resource Economics, Florida Cooperative Extension Service, Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences, University of Florida, Gainesville, FL.

In the early 1980s, owner-operators accounted for just over half of all interstate movements of Florida's produce/ornamentals (Beilock and Fletcher, 1983). During the past two decades, trucking deregulation and technological developments have favored larger carriers, which may have caused the importance of owner-operators to decline. In this report, we examine the extent to which owner-operators have been able to maintain their share of Florida's produce/ornamentals haulage and their dependence upon larger carriers to secure loads. his is EDIS document, FE543, a publication of the Department of Food and Resource Economics, Florida Cooperative Extension Service, Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences, University of Florida, Gainesville, FL.

The rapid growth of Florida's hard clam industry over the past decade has motivated aquaculturists to explore alternative molluscan species, which could reduce exposure to production risks and simultaneously promote market expansion. Species diversification could possibly provide some degree of protection against potential disastrous losses associated with a monoculture-based industry. Further, production of other molluscan species could potentially increase sales and profitability, expanding clam consumers' options. The Blood Ark (Anadara ovalis) and the Ponderous Ark (Noetia ponderosa) clams represent two possible production opportunities. This is EDIS document FE568, a publication of the Department of Food and Resource Economics, Florida Cooperative Extension Service, Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences, University of Florida, Gainesville, FL.

The objective of this fact sheet is to provide a performance evaluation of the sugarcane UBPCs after their first ten years in operation. The evaluation follows standard measures such as production/productivity, revenue, cost, and profitability. It also revises the accomplishments of the UBPCs relating to their original goals and objectives. The fact sheet ends with a discussion of some of the factors that appear to be limiting the efficiency and profitability in Cuba's sugarcane UBPCs. As opposed to what was the norm in the past, comprehensive official data from Cuba's Ministry of Sugar (MINAZ) have recently become available for these cooperatives (MINAZ, 2003). This is EDIS document FE562, a publication of the Department of Food and Resource Economics, Florida Cooperative Extension Service, Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences, University of Florida, Gainesville, FL.

This fact sheet is one in a series that addresses issues associated with land use at the rural-urban fringe. This fact sheet is designed to explain the background related to land use issues at the rural-urban fringe, conflicts that arise due to growth and use of land, and various methods used throughout the United States to slow the conversion of agricultural land to nonagricultural uses. This is EDIS document FE551, a publication of the Department of Food and Resource Economics, Florida Cooperative Extension Service, Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences, University of Florida, Gainesville, FL. This document is one of a series entitled "Issues at the Rural Urban Fringe". Published May 2005.

In Florida, nematicides are the most viable nematode management option because many growers only produce monoculture cotton and the low prices of other agronomic crops in the state make crop rotation expensive. The two primary nematicides used and recommended in Florida are Telone II and Temik 15G (Kinloch and Rich, 2000). This is EDIS document FE 318, a publication of the Department of Food and Resource Economics, Florida Cooperative Extension Service, Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences, University of Florida, Gainesville, FL.
