The theme of the program
was “Thanksgiving and Har
vest ” Irwin spoke to the group
on “Agriculture In The Seven
ties” He said that “one of the
most important areas is busi
ness management Farmers are
going to use computers to make
decisions and to keep records be
cause time will be too valuable
to do it otherwise. There will
be fewer farms but farms will
be larger.
“He projected that by 1980
half of our dairy farms now in
existance will be gone but there
will be more milk because cows
will produce more The same is
true for other farm enterprises
The income from poultry in
Lancaster County last year sur
passed income from the dairy
business. There is now one
poultry farm in our county that
keeps 360,000 layers and one
man takes care of 45,000 layers.
He quoted statistics on the
number of dairy cows, beef
cattle, swine and poultry raised
in the county. Of the 423,000
acres under cultivation in our
county 150,000 acies is planted
in corn.
Of the problems facing farm
ers, pollution is the most im
mediate one Reseai'ch con
tinues to solve many disease
problems among poultry and
farm animals He also predicted
that farm machinery would in
crease in size as our farms will
and that we are going to have
safety minded people with all
this machinery.
