Community watershed pre

Good said local districts
receive many requests iae
soil surveys, conservation
plans and technical assistance
from non-farm landowners.
“We want to service these
requests,” he said, “but we
need the help of urban and
suburban people to adapt
programs to meet changing
needs. Very few of them un
derstand how soil conserva

Attempts this year to
amend state law to permit
non-farm representation on
district governing boards
were thrwarted by the Gen

About 200 farmers and
county commissioners repre

Maine and Idaho piocessors
saw the trend five years ago
and acted, he said.
“The big question mark
mark right now is the dairy
industry.” he said. With all
the research going toward,
producing sterile concentra
ted and steril whole milk,
perhaps dairymen had better
stop thinking solely in terms
otf fluid milk production and
pricing. It is not the cost of
production, the cost of trans
portation, the cost of process
ing or the cost of marketing
alone, but the combination of
all these things together that
are important, he said
When asked if he expects
sterile concentrated and ster
ile whole milk to become an
important factor in this area
Carroll said, “The whole his
tory of the food industry has
been toward convenience.”
Farmers should consider this
and try to work out resource
management programs on a
mutually agreeable basis
with processors, he said.
With 80 per cent of the
land base in Lancaster Coun
ty now in agricultural pro
duction, it is time for farm
ers, urban dwellers and su
burban residents to sit down
at the township level anc
work out problems on mu
tually agreeable basis, Caioli
believes
He urged farmers to change
their attitudes to include
room m the county for pro
cessors “Areas with proces
sors and producers working
together are going to be the
ones in a good position in
years to come” he said.
