Abstract
Despite their reference to particular localities, the many studies of low-income farmers have recurring themes that stress the diversity among such people and suggest guides to programming for them. One such theme is that low-income farm people do not represent homogeneous groupings. Yet, five common characteristics have been identified and are discussed in this paper-some are fixed, others can be altered. These characteristics indicate some ability limitations of such people and the restrictions that available opportunities may impose on possibilities for programming. On the basis of this general analysis, program implications are identified.
