at the problems we face in
agricutlure and we have to
have a critical eye and figure
out how we can profit. In
agriculture we are going to
have to look more and more
on the energy we have on the
farm," he said. Another
problem for farmers in past
years, he stated is the
amount of money they have
had to borrow.
After the interesting and
practical talk, members
joined in a few minutes of
