Wisconsin Bankers and Farmers Promote Agricultural Growth
Wisconsin bankers plan cooperation with farmers to boost agricultural resources. At the state bankers convention in Milwaukee, scholarships will be offered at the University of Wisconsin College of Agriculture as prizes in seed and grain contests. The plan would extend short courses to winners and cover railroad and board costs during study, as banks track successful crop improvements across seven regional groups. A regional banker forum in Shawano heard a banker cite central Wisconsin deposits rising from 859000 to 1500000 after farmers scientifically improved soil and fertilizer use and coordinated planting the same potato variety to attract buyers nationwide.
