Need For Youth In Agriculture At FFA Convention
Kansas City speakers urged agricultural careers as 15 000 new trained workers are needed yearly while only about 4 5 percent earn degrees in agricultural science. Charles B Shuman of the American Farm Bureau Federation blamed price fixing and acreage controls for surpluses and called soil bank administration the better fix. Raymond Tirestone of Firestone urged collaboration among farmers, tire and rubber industries and others to boost production and innovation.
