Special Adviser SeiVice
Your Agromart Manager knows local-
farming very well:
But there's so much new information
pouring out, no one man can keep on top,
of it.
So, to help you and -help the Agromart
Manager, CIL has formed a special
Adviser Service a team of specialists
to give you down-to-earth -advice on
what's new 7— and what works.
You can get on-farm advice about
Feed, Seed, Soil Management, Fertilizer,
Animal Health, Nutrition, and Farm Man-
agement — simply by asking your Agro-
mart manager to call the Advisers in.
. Agromart Farmers' Meetings
keep you,up to date
When we talked to farmers about this
new service, a lot of them said "I've got
-to know, what the new farm ideas are
before -I can get advice- on them." Fair
enough.
So this year the Agromart will run a
series (;),f Farmers' Meetings on what's
happening in,larming. Nothing formal.
Just coffee and donuts. An'-agricultural
specialist or one of our supplier's experts
will talk a while, then answer questions:
We'll announce the.meetings in the
paper. Plan to come along. You never
know what you'll learn.
What else can the Agromart
do for you?
The biggest problem a farmer faces is
the battle to keep profits up. It's not a
new problerh. But CIL have some new
answers.
