nho said the family farm will
continue to dominate New Yoik
faim pioduclion and most of
Amencan fanning
He leasoned that this foim of
business oigamzation is as ef
ficient as any othei alternate e.
“If the day comes when huge
coipoiate oigamzalions can do
a better iob than can family
faims in oiganizing lesouices to
produce food in the foim and
of the quality that consumeis
want, then the family faim will
no longer be dominant,’" de
clared Stanton

“The food mdustiy as a whole
and the faim pioduction sector
must accept consumei decisions
about what is desuable to pio
duce if they are to strong

as a majoi conti ibutoi to the
state’s economy,” he stated
