Abstract
The chapter considers agriculture and rural policy in the six counties of Ulster that formed Northern Ireland after 1921. First, trends in the socio-economic structure
of the rural world are examined, considering changes in farm size, production patterns, and employment. Political developments and their infl uence, especially on prices and marketing, are discussed in two main periods: 1914–72, and 1972 to the present. This is interleaved with reflections about the political relationships between administrations in Belfast, London, and Dublin, and between government and farmers.
