during the events.
The Berks County Conserva
tion District will again sponsor the
local Envirothon competition. It
will be at Nolde State Environ
mental Education Center on
Thursday, May 6. In 1992 there
were 18 teams who participated in
the Berks County event. The win
ning team was from Twin Valley
High School and Kutztown was
the runner-up.
“We believe that this year’s
competition will be more exciting
and challenging than ever!,” said
'Dr. Paul Hess, retired Director ot
Tewksbury Talks To NAA
MESHOPPEN (Lackawanna
Co.) Arden Tewksbury, mana
ger of the Progressive Agriculture
organization (Pro Ag) was a guest
speaker at a meeting of the North
east Agriculture Associates
(N. A.A.) held Nov. 14 at the Hotel
Hershey, Hershey.
N.A.A. is an association made
up of interested agriculture leaders
from 13 Northeastern states.
One of the main purposes of
N.A.A. will be to aid the new
Clinton administration in develop
ing and enacting favorable agri
culture policy.
Tewksbury told the group that a
new look had to be taken at the
method of determining farm
prices for agriculture commodi
ties.
Referring specifically to dairy,
Tewksbury said, “The new cost
of-production figures released by
the U.S.D.A. clearly illustrate
what is happening to the Northeast
dairy farmers.” U.S.D.A. pegs the
dairy farmers cost of production in
the Northeast for 1990 at $16.46
per hundredweight (cwt).
The most recent price paid to
Environmental Affairs, Hershey
Foods Coiporation and consultant
to the Envirothon Program.
This year’s State Envirothon
competition is scheduled for June
19th at Pine Grove Furnace State
Park. The winning team will rep
resent Pennsylvania at the Nation
al Envirothon, held July 31st
through August 4th at Niagara
University in New York.

area dairy farmers (Federal Order
2) for October’s milk was $13.24
per cwt. The Pro Ag leader esti
mates the average price for 1992
to be around $12.80 per cwt.
Tewksbury told the group, ‘The
real sad part of these figures is that
in 1981, eleven years ago, the
average price paid to area dairy
farmers was $13.39 per cwt.
Pro Ag was formed nearly two
years ago in an attempt to create
more of an awareness of the plight
being experienced by agriculture
and to work on favorable methods
to correct the inequities facing
agriculture producers.
Tewksbury said, “Pro Ag has
made some good contacts with
farmers and agriculture leaders in
other states, but our meeting with
the N.A.A. opens up a complete
new area of cooperation between
Pro Ag and the leaers of N.A.A.”
Both Tewksbury and William
Burke, chairman of N.A.A.
pledged continued cooperation
between the two groups in an
attempt to reverse the downward
skid that many agriculture produc
ers are on.
