me past eight years, more
than 200 youths between the
ages of 18 and 21 spend three
weeks at the 22-acre farm,
working and learning
together. When they go back
to their villages, they are
better-equipped in the skills
needed to operate a farm or
a rural home.
“In the past eight years,”
Kim said, “the farm has
helped to train 2400 youths.”
Another AKF project is the
Korean Agricultural
Training Program. Each
year, some 80 Korean youths
are placed on American
farms in Missouri,
Wisconsin, Minnesota, North
Carolina or Kansas. They
will stay on these farms for
two years to learn American
farming practices. When
they return home, they very
often assume leadership
roles in their communities.
Many of them, with the help
of government loans, buy
their own farms or start
agribusiness ventures.
“This program,” Lim
pointed out, “is entirely self
supporting. While the men
and women are here, they
are paid prevailing wages
for the work they do on the
farms. This pays for the air
fare and all the other ex
penses connected with
running the program.
Whatever is left over, and it
can be as much as $l5OO for
each participant, is
distributed among the
youths themselves. This
money, along with govern
ment loans, can get them
started in businesses or
farms of their own.”
During his three-week stay
in the U.S., Lim will be
touring many of the farms
where the Koreans are living
and working. He hopes to
gain a broader awareness of
the program’s strengths and
weaknesses.
His Erst trip to the U.S. has
been a whirlwind of vir
tuallly ceaseless activity,
Lim said late Wednesday
afternoon when we talked to
him. Since his arrival here
last Friday, he has seen New
York and Philadelphia. On-
Tuesday, he was with
Bphrata dairy farmer
Clarence Stauffer as he
hosted a touring group of
New York Holstein dairy
farmers. Wednesday, he
talked to reporters, visited
the Lancaster Farm and
Home Center, toured Sperry
New Holland, and went to a
banquet in the evening.
On Tuesday’s tour, Lim
saw quite a few Penn
sylvania farms, and he said
he was impressed. “They
are nothing like we have in
Korea,” he said. “The
average farm there is just a
little over two acres, and is
given over mostly to rice
fanning. Through our 4-H
program, we hope to educate
people to the potential for
mechanization, new crop
varieties, and better farming
methods. We are losing
people from rural Korea,
and we hope the people who
stay on the land can learn to
become better farmers.”
