The general purpose of this study is to aid in the analysis of the distressed conditions existing within certain areas of western South Dakota in order to determine proper use of the land and thereby contribute to the conservation of human and natural resource. Specifically, this study includes an analysis of such factors as the amount of land cultivated which is naturally better adapted for grazing, number of operating units inadequate as to type and size to afford a living for an average family, taxation problems, and other related factors.
