- Abstract
- Despite spirited public discourse around rural decline and the future of family farming relatively little theoretical or empirical work has focused upon the lives of young rural residents: almost none in relation to those living on family farms. The research has focused upon whether these young people intended to stay on their family's farm or leave, and why? This seminar offers insight into the lives these young people at a time when defining post secondary-school goals were of foremost concern.
