Best Answer

Crop farming under-went rapid consolidation in the late 1990s, in which large agribusiness firms increasingly took the place of smaller family farms, resulting in reduced employment levels, as farms tried to boost efficiency to remain competitive.

However, the overall effect on US agriculture as a whole was negligible since even now in 2011 98% of US farms are family owned and operated, according to the USDA.
