professor of farm

addressed himself to that
topic.
“Farm production ex
penses in 1979 will be up by
12 to 14 per cent,” he began.
Total production costs for
the nation will be around
$lO7 billion to $lll billion, he
added. The farm
management professpr
made particular reference to
increasing energy-costs, and
speculated that Penn
sylvania would stand to gain
if transportation” costs
continue to escalate. In the
past, he explained, it was
often more economical to
truck feed supplies and food
from more remote areas, but

as transportation becomes
more expensive, producers’
and consumers’ needs will
have to be met, closer to
home. Pennsylvania’s close
proximity to more than a
quarter of the nation’s
population will make
agricultural expansion here
attractive.
And that’s the key to the
optimism that’s being
voiced. The 110 bankers in
attendance were reminded
of .that over and over again.
The occasion for the outlook
reports was the 1979
Agricultural Conference for
Pennsylvania Bankers. It
was held here Tuesday
through Thursday of this
week at the J.O. Keller
Conference Center of the
Pennsylvania State
University. Sponsoring
