  • WHAT IS a FARM? AGRICULTURE, DISCOURSE, and PRODUCING LANDSCAPES in ST ELIZABETH, JAMAICA by Gary R. Schnakenberg a DISSERTATION
    WHAT IS A FARM? AGRICULTURE, DISCOURSE, AND PRODUCING LANDSCAPES IN ST ELIZABETH, JAMAICA By Gary R. Schnakenberg A DISSERTATION Submitted to Michigan State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Geography – Doctor of Philosophy 2013 ABSTRACT WHAT IS A FARM? AGRICULTURE, DISCOURSE, AND PRODUCING LANDSCAPES IN ST. ELIZABETH, JAMAICA By Gary R. Schnakenberg This dissertation research examined the operation of discourses associated with contemporary globalization in producing the agricultural landscape of an area of rural Jamaica. Subject to European colonial domination from the time of Columbus until the 1960s and then as a small island state in an unevenly globalizing world, Jamaica has long been subject to operations of unequal power relationships. Its history as a sugar colony based upon chattel slavery shaped aspects of the society that emerged, and left imprints on the ethnic makeup of the population, orientation of its economy, and beliefs, values, and attitudes of Jamaican people. Many of these are smallholder agriculturalists, a livelihood strategy common in former colonial places. Often ideas, notions, and practices about how farms and farming ‘ought-to-be’ in such places results from the operations and workings of discourse. As advanced by Foucault, ‘discourse’ refers to meanings and knowledge circulated among people and results in practices that in turn produce and re-produce those meanings and knowledge. Discourses define what is right, correct, can be known, and produce ‘the world as it is.’ They also have material effects, in that what it means ‘to farm’ results in a landscape that emerges from those meanings. In Jamaica, meanings of ‘farms’ and ‘farming’ have been shaped by discursive elements of contemporary globalization such as modernity, competition, and individualism.

DIRECT EVIDENCE OF A SHERMAN ACT AGREEMENT WILLIAM H. PAGE* The Supreme Court once said, “[C]ircumstantial evidence is the lifeblood of antitrust law.”1 That was in a merger case, but the observation could also apply to price-fixing litigation under Section 1 of the Sherman Act.2 Claims of price fixing and other per se violations of Section 1 usually turn on whether circumstantial evidence proves that the defendants formed an agreement—the “contract, combination . or conspiracy” the statute requires.3 Motions for summary judgment test the legal sufficiency of the plaintiffs’ evidence of agreement.4 Under Matsushita, courts resolving these motions usually rely on a framework of “plus factors”5 to evaluate whether the plaintiff’s circumstan- tial evidence raises a plausible inference of agreement, one that “tends to ex- clude the possibility”6 the defendants were simply pricing interdependently, as oligopolists typically (and lawfully) do.7 Under Twombly, courts faced with * Marshall M.

    Specialty Crop Block Grant Program – Farm Bill USDA AMS Agreement #12-25-B-1695 FINAL PERFORMANCE REPORT Submitted by: Amy Howard London Clint Leach Grants Administrator Assistant Commissioner [email protected] [email protected] 803-734-7209 803-734-2191 Submitted on: December 21, 2016 1 Project Title: Marketing and Promoting SC Grown Watermelons Partner South Carolina Watermelon Association Summary The South Carolina Watermelon Association (SCWA) is a grower-led organization with the mission to promote the SC watermelon industry, and thus, increase the sales of Certified SC Grown watermelons. Watermelons grown in SC bring an annual sales figure between $30-35 million to our local economy. Funding from this agreement enabled SCWA to promote the SC watermelon industry to retailers, wholesalers, and to the consuming public via an extensive promotions program that featured an industry spokesperson. The responsibility of the spokesperson was to act as an ambassador and public relations representative for the watermelon growers, and the SCWA. Approach The objective of the promotional program was to increase the consumption of Certified SC Grown watermelon while providing education regarding the health benefits one may obtain by having fresh watermelon incorporated into their diet. The promotional agenda included appearances at retail food stores, media appearances, and participation in various festivals and food show events. The goal was to make impressions on more than 150,000 persons/consumers over the course of the grant period. Specific signage was developed for promotional use in conjunction with the National Watermelon Association. Items included recipe cards utilizing watermelon as a primary ingredient in dishes to be served at all meals, booklets highlighting the health benefits of watermelon, and point of purchase signage identifying which watermelons sold in stores were grown in South Carolina.
