The Argentine and Canadian wheat economies, starting from very similar positions in the late nineteenth century, had diverged startlingly by 1930. In wheat production and export Argentina had stagnated and declined, while Canada had surged to a position of world leadership. This book explains how Canada had outpaced Argentina, a country with better growing conditions and a much shorter haul to port. The author finds the explanation in how differing government policies affected the paths the Canadian and Argentine wheat economies took. The author's investigations center on several key questions: In what ways did Canadian and Argentine policy makers and wheat growers attempt to improve their competitive positions by introducing efficient marketing systems, research, and agricultural education? How responsive were the two political systems to questions of land tenure, the role of immigrants, and political representation in the wheat regions? In sum, how did quite different views on the role of the state affect the outcome? The book is in three parts. The first provides a basic political and economic overview of Argentine and Canadian history between 1880 and 1930. The second part analyzes and compares the two countries' basic agricultural development policies. In the third part the focus moves away from a topical emphasis and shifts to an analysis of major agricultural policy issues in the two countries. The concluding chapter presents some final thoughts on the different paths of agrarian development in the two countries.
