Farming’s Future for Young Men in Agriculture Careers
Secretary of Agriculture Anderson reports to the House Committee that U S farming has relatively good prospects for the next five to ten years despite slackening business and weaker foreign demand. He cautions this is a chance not a certainty, noting past postwar booms and declines and predicting farm prices to stay above the 1930s lows. A young man willing to rearm a branch of agriculture, work hard, and apply intelligence can build a solid farming career.
