Living in the country, we tend to take clean water
and clean air for granted. New evidence, however,
shows we should be more concerned. This issue
deals with several areas of the farm and the
environment.

THE MAGAZINE OF THE AGRICULTURAL INDUSTRY
A tree isn't just something
that gets in the way of farm
machinery working in the
field. Trees are essential to
maintaining the agricultural
resources we have today,
says Henry Kock,
horticulturalist at The
Arboretum, University of
Guelph. Other agricultural
civilizations have ignored
trees and destroyed the soil,
the basis of their prosperity,
he says.
