What is a: "Suitcase Farm" and the "Agricultural Location Model"?

Question

HUMAN GEOGRAPHY

Answer 1

Suitcase Farm- In American commercial grain agriculture, a farm on which no one lives; planting and harvesting is done by hired migratory crews.

Agricultural Location Modle- Why is a vineyard or a dairy located here rather than elsewhere? The choice could be at least partially explained by economic factors that are potentially adjustable. The multiregional computable general equilibrium model developed at Cemagref in Bordeaux, which integrates economic and geographical parameters, can be used to study key economic factors influencing activity locations and the impact of agricultural policies on the activities.
