Agricultural land use is analysed in an area of northwestern New Brunswick which includes nearly all cleared land in Carleton, Victoria, arid Madawaska counties. Of the major physiographic regions which comprise the area, the intervals and terraces along the St. John and its larger tributaries, the uplands of western Carleton county, and the area centering on Grand Falls are the beat suited agriculturally, and have favoured potato specialization since the early 1900’s. Elsewhere, mixed farming pertains, often at subsistence or part-time levels.
