Discussion Groups Planned for Farm Program Education
County committees advance a new emphasis on old methods to educate farmers through rural discussion groups. Paul C. Taff of Iowa State suggests four topics on land and trade policy, farmer consumer obligations, and long-term county production plans. Groups of up to 20 meet in homes or halls, with speeches limited to ensure broad participation. Reports will feed state and federal policy discussions aimed at long-range agricultural planning and erosion control.
