Location of Production Units

Climate, topography, and soils have an all-important effect upon the use of land for agriculture. The location factor is also important particularly in cases of commercial crop production. It usually has an effect on efficiency of production units.

The internal land use planning deals with the location of production units of an agricultural enterprise. It includes also the planning of transportation systems, field rotations, pastures, grasslands and other land uses.

The location of production units is of crucial importance for agricultural production. By its very nature farming is widely dispersed over the available land area. Differences in soil, climate and topography make differences in location.

Topography, for example, is the natural factor that has an important impact upon the location and desirability of residential and industrial sites. Residential developments and production units are usually preferred on high and well-drained sites. Mountainous and rough terrain may also discourage the use of land for industrial location or cropping.

Location and accessibility often play an important role in determining the uses for which various tracts of land are suited. The concept of internal land use planning assumes that some areas enjoy locational advantages over others. This advantage often involves savings in transportation costs and time.

The land use planners must regard the location of production units in terms of land resources they have at hand. They should also consider the time needed to grow a crop, to complete a production cycle, or to justify certain operating expenditures.

Transportation cost also have important effects upon location factors. Fields located at greater distances naturally have higher transportation costs.

The land use planners should be well aware of the geographical distribution of farm production. Winter vegetables grow only in frost-free areas. Cotton grows only within a given temperature range. Tobacco grows only on certain soil types. Locating the production units must be based on cost-benefit analysis and the geographical distribution of farm production.
