  • The Intersection of Governance and Agency in Farmers' Engagement
    Who benefits?: The intersection of governance and agency in farmers’ engagement with the Oklahoma Farm to School Program by Gina K. Thornburg B.S., University of Kansas, 1985 B.A., University of Kansas, 1985 M.A., California State University, Northridge, 2005 AN ABSTRACT OF A DISSERTATION submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of Geography College of Arts and Sciences KANSAS STATE UNIVERSITY Manhattan, Kansas 2017 Abstract Farm-to-school (FTS) programs are promoted as direct-marketing opportunities for farmers. As such, they are regarded by advocates and state and federal agencies as a pathway to rural economic development. The implementation of FTS food procurement poses significant challenges, however. Farmers make decisions regarding whether or not to market products to schools after learning about the program and considering an array of signals from multiscalar policies and governance structures. Research to date has left a gap in understanding farmers’ agency as it relates to governance structures and policy signals. This research on farmers’ engagement with the Oklahoma FTS Program contributes evidence to bridge this gap by examining the experiences not only of producers who participated in a FTS program but also of those who ceased participation or who chose not to participate. Employing a phronetic approach to social science, this explanatory, sequential, mixed-methods case study obtained quantitative and textual data from a mail survey, as well as data from two stints of qualitative fieldwork, in fall 2011 and fall 2012, which involved semistructured interviews and participant observation. Archival research completed the study methods used to gain a deeper understanding of farmers’ perspectives, practices, values, and experiences that informed their decisions to participate or not in a top-down-administered FTS program.

Abstract The changes in native forest and grassland management regimes following European settlement, particularly fire exclusion, have prompted the growth of fire intolerant woody tree species such as eastern redcedar (Juniperus virginiana). Eastern redcedar is a native species that has encroached into the prairies and forests of the southern Great Plains of the United States. Over the past few decades, the state of Oklahoma has witnessed considerable ecological and economic losses due to the widespread encroachment of eastern redcedar. This study performed an economic impact analysis in conjunction with a spatial analysis to understand the impacts of the introduction of new eastern redcedar-based bioproducts industries on the economy of Oklahoma. The results suggested that the new eastern redcedar industry manufacturing particleboard, mulch, and oil would contribute an additional USD 96 million per year to the economy of Oklahoma, while generating 319 employment opportunities. In addition, the spatial analysis identified two hotspot clusters suggesting that the existing biomass in the northwest and southeast counties of the state could sustain the bioproducts industry for two to ten decades based on the annual feedstock requirement of different operations.

  • Overview and Summary of Recent Initiatives
    Overview and Summary of Recent Initiatives In the summer of 2003, Governor Brad Henry initiated the Economic Oevelopment Generating Excellence (EDGE) project, which included the recommendation to "Transform Oklahoma into the w Research Capital of the Plains ." The EDGE plan proposed to achieve this by establishing a $1 billion research endowment. Under the leadership of the Governor, plans to fund the $1 billion EDGE endowment and structure and operate the endowment to support research and technology transfer in the private and public sector are progressing. During the 2005 legislative session, in a flISt step toward this objective, HB 1193 created the Dynamic Economy and Budget Security Fund, which promotes research and development of critical sectors of the statc's economy. The Legislature and Governor authorized the deposit of approximately $93 million into the fund. In the 2006 legislative session, that $93 million was used to fund other projects, but the money was replaced with new funding in the amount of$150 million. In March, 2005 Governor Brad Henry signed legislation establishing a $475 million bond issue for a slate of higher education projects, much of which targets research and laboratory facilities. The Oklahoma Higher Education Promise of Exce1lence Act of2005 also provided $25 million wthe foml ofa bond bank to fmance future improvements at the state's colleges and universities. The final $125 million in bonds of the $475 million total is scheduled to be sold in the spring of 2006. Among the projects to be funded with bond proceeds are the following: • University of Oklahoma: A long-proposed cancer center; the first phase of a multiphase project for a new, freestanding, Chemistry and Biochemistry teaching and research-laboratory complex; and constnlction of a College of Allied Health Phase II building.

  • The Birth and Persistence of Cities: Evidence from the Oklahoma’S First Fifty Years of Urban Growth∗
    The Birth and Persistence of Cities: Evidence from the Oklahoma’s First Fifty Years of Urban Growth∗ John C. Brown and David Cuberes December 2020 Abstract This paper examines the influence of first- and second-nature forces on the process of city formation in Oklahoma from 1890 through 1930. The natural experiment offered by the opening up of previously unoccupied land for settlement in central Oklahoma in 1889 and the rapid initial settlement reveals that population density was highest near railroads and pre-existing sites of (modest) habitation. Persistence or second-nature forces dominate in explaining population growth over the first decade of settlement. The oil boom of 1900 to 1930 altered the productivity potential of many locations in Oklahoma. Oil shocks increased population in those areas most profoundly affected. We also find evidence that the effect of the shock is larger in areas with higher initial population density and places with a higher initial population. The adverse impact of erosion is clearly apparent in the place regressions while it has no impact on township population density. Keywords: city formation; urban agglomerations; locational fundamentals; natural experiment JEL Codes: N9, R1 1 Introduction Urban economists have long been interested in understanding the origin of urban agglomerations. As Fujita et al. (1999) show, in a featureless plane, without some sort of increasing returns, there should be no reason why population would optimally choose to agglomerate in a specific location. At the same time, there is plenty of evidence that human settlements have long been very much influenced by natural advantages such as proximity to the sea or to a river or a moderate climate.

  • A History of District Twenty-One, United Mine Workers of America
    A HISTORY OF DISTRICT TWENTY-ONE, UNITED MINE WORKERS OF AMERICA ' I I By JOHN HERSCHEL BARNHILL H Bachelor of Arts Texas A & I University at Corpus Christi Corpus Christi, Texas 1976 Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate College of the Oklahoma State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS December, 1978 /ht::,,·~ 1978 b262h A HISTORY OF DISTRICT TWENTY-ONE, UNITED MINE WORKERS OF AMERICA Thesis Approved: Dean of the Graduate College 1019368 ii PREFACE The purpose of this work is to discuss the rise and decline of District Twenty-one of the United Mine Workers of America. The dis­ trict became a major force in Oklahoma after successfully gaining recognition by the mine owners of Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Texas in 1903. Its greatest moment came in the Oklahoma constitutional conven­ tion of 1907 where Pete Hanraty of the miners served as vice-president. For two decades, the union was a major factor in the Oklahoma Federa­ tion of Labor and helped to gain significant benefits for the working men and women of the state. In the 1920s, the miners' organization began the long period of decline in which the lessening demand for coal and internal and external problems resulted in the loss of the district's autonomy in 1929. After that year, the district became de­ pendent for its survival on the strength of the national organization. The history of District Twenty-one is important because the union was so influential in the early development of the state and because it reflects national trends in the United Mine Workers of America.
