英文文献摘要：
The financial health of the agricultural economy has been excellent for the past few years, especially with farm income reaching record levels. However, the U.S. economy has experienced a recession and a credit crisis. Although the U.S. farm sector has been mostly shielded from the economic downturn, farm financial stress is still possible under current conditions. Are some U.S. farm businesses, especially those with term debt, poised to experience significant financial stress in 2010? We use the Agricultural Resource Management Survey (ARMS), sponsored jointly by USDA’s Economic Research Service (ERS) and National Agricultural Statistical Service, to help answer this question.

过去几年，农业经济的财务健康状况非常好，特别是农业收入达到创纪录水平。然而，美国经济经历了衰退和信贷危机。尽管美国农业部门在经济衰退中基本没有受到影响，但在目前情况下，农业仍有可能面临财务压力。一些美国农业企业，特别是那些有长期债务的企业，是否会在2010年面临严重的财务压力?我们利用由美国农业部经济研究局(ERS)和国家农业统计局联合发起的农业资源管理调查(ARMS)来帮助回答这个问题。
