What should we call farm land at the end of the fall harvesting season? Silly question, right? Just because the land is void of vegetation in the winter does not mean that it is something less than farm land; unless, that is, you work for the U.S. Geological Survey. If that is the case, then what had been a farm is “defarmed” after harvest. It is a brown, barren, and scarred wasteland. At least that is the logic being proposed by M Drummond and T Loveland (great name for an environmentalist) in Eastern U.S. Forests Resume Decline, which was printed in Science Daily.
