Notes
  • problem that has always plagued economic geographers is the lack of conformity between the geographic region and the area for which statistics are reported. It is particularly critical in agricultural geography where the production surface covers extensive areas, unlike irn.dustry, and is therefore much more likely to be disturbed by the arbitrary boundaries of reporting areas. The disconformity becomes notably acute in areas such as California, where regional comparisons are vital for an adequate understanding of the agricultural life of the state. Great areal variations occur in the crop complexes, operational systems, and general intensity of California agriculture. Furthermore, important regional changes in these farming elements are also taking place.
