areas of marginal agricultural
land have been improved by
diversion to forests, pasture, or
various recreational uses,” the
dean said.
He added that if agriculture

crop production and from animal

and sedimentation of streams.”
The seriousness of en

threat to man cannot be ignored,
he noted.
However, we must guard

solving anything, may merely
replace one problem with
another, he said
