Abstract
So far, I have assumed that only produced means of production are used in each process.1 In this chapter, I relax this assumption by permitting one sector — the agricultural sector producing wheat — to employ a durable non-produced means of production, which I shall call land. Following Ricardo and Sraffa, I examine two cases: in the first, there are two (or more) qualities of land, giving rise to extensive rent; in the second, land is homogeneous, implying that rent is of the intensive variety.
