Abstract
Agriculture is very important to the economy of Georgia. Farm production accounts for $6 billion of annual revenue within the State. Looking more broadly, the food and fiber sector contributes in the neighborhood of $30 billion of value added to the state economy. In this brief overview, we present an early forecast of 1998 conditions for Georgia agriculture. This look forward covers the major commodities only due to space, concluding with some discussion of the macroeconomic conditions for agriculture in 1998.
