Turkish County Agents Tour Maryland Farm Projects
A group of Turkish agricultural officials toured Carroll County and Goldsboro facilities in Maryland, observing rural electrification at Leonard Larsong’s Bee Tree farm, silage practices, and crop tests. They learned how the Choptank Rural Electric Cooperative funds projects, with U.S. government loans repaid by farm families. The visit included a luncheon at Goldsboro and a tour of the Choptank Electric Cooperative offices in Denton, with demonstrations by Home Economist Julia Wilson and others guiding discussions on drainage, cost-sharing, and electrical kitchen demos.
