Zusammenfassung:One of the less recognized constraints on US agriculture is land use conflict resulting from migration of Ur residents to Ru/Ur fringe areas. A case study of land use conflicts in NJ is presented, with emphasis on a specific dispute over sewage sludge -- which farmers wish to use as fertilizer & other citizens wish to have banned. Possible contributions of anthropology to the resolution of such policy disputes & crises are suggested. 54 References. W. H. Stoddard
