Excerpt from Agricultural Outlook Charts, 1958 A striking feature of many of these charts is the sharp upward tilt in the trend lines after 1940. This is particularly noticeable in the charts on the opposite page which illustrate changes in farm production per man-hour since 1910. Farm output has risen steadily over this period. And over the last 17 years when the increase in output has been steepest, the number of workers on farms has steadily shrunk.
