Bio-Tech Workshop Held For Ag Teachers
EVERETT NEWSWANGER
QUARRYVILLE (Lancaster Co.) —To bring new agricultur
al technology to the classroom. Pioneer Hi-Bred International
and American Cyanamid held a joint education workshop for
agricultural teachers at the Pioneer research station.
“Industry is working in edcuation directly with teachers,” said
Frederic-Stillwagen, education consultant, for American Cyana
mid. “We are providing information to make teachers and stu
dents aware of the disciplines that are needed for the job market
when they graduate from school.”
Stillwagen said bio-technology is so fascinating that when put
into agricultural education, it can motivate students in the ag sci
ences. He said there are many jobs available and we need gradu
ates in ag sciences to enter the new world of bio-technology.
In addition, Stillwagen said bio-tech can help bridge the gap
between people in rural and urban settings. “People are scared of
ag bio-tech because they only read about the negatives,” Stillwa
gen said. “Ag bio-tech is really very positive and very fascinat
ing for the inquiring mind.”
Terry Williams, Pioneer Hi-Bred plant breeder and station
manager at New Holland, said Bio-tech is not new to the plant
breeder, but in the past the whole plant was used to develop new
hybrid plants. With the new technology, plant breeders are able
to select traits by individual genes to increase the chance of
success.
And with this new technology, Williams believes they can
bring new life into many ag education programs. “Incredible
changes have taken place in the world,” Williams said. “All of a
sudden we will soon be a global agriculture. And with all the
agricultural advances we will need to feed more people and deal
with the poor interstructures of these other countries. And we
need help; we need these young students with scientific minds.

“Many of the ag education programs in the high schools are
dying on the vine for lack of money and support. We need to
wake them up and build the science end of the bio-tech
knowledge.
Williams said in the near future the com industry will gen
erate specific varieties for different segments of the market The
poultry industry or the candy industry would be examples. Wil
liams called these identity preserved (IP Com) segments.
In IP com, seed must be kept separate, and no cross pollina
tion in the growing fields allowed. Separate harvesting and stor
age must also be assured.
Joe Mayer, Pioneer Hy-Bred, said the benefits from bio-tech
to agriculture would be sizable. In the mid- 1990’s he expects the
first generation of herbicide, disease and pest-resistant varieties
to be available. By the end of of the 1990 s protein enhanced and
starch modified varieties should be available, and later, more
yield and maturity changes should be made.
Tom Creswell, manager. Quarry ville station, said students are
needed to work into the new field of bio-technology. And he said
they hope to hold annual educational workshops for teachers if
response from ag teachers is positive.
