Scientific farming a necessity soon
East Lansing, Mich. (UP) Dr. George S. Wehrwein of the University of Wisconsin argues that farmers must classify and dedicate land use. He calls for surveying U.S. lands to reserve half for food, with remaining areas for forestry or recreation. Wisconsin already has zoning in eight counties, with fifteen planning more. He links this to federal efforts to classify marginal lands and warns against repeating past land booms.
