Description

A study was commissioned in 2018 with the aim of seeking a more in-depth understanding of the National Poultry Improvement Plan (NPIP) and assessing the potential for an NPIP like program to support the US pork industry (i.e., US Swine Health Improvement Plan).

Findings suggest the basic tenets and approach used by the NPIP could serve as a road map for pork producers and packers (slaughter facilities) interested in more directly and systematically addressing the major swine health issues of high consequence and better positioning the future of the US pork industry in the domestic and global marketplace.

Description
The symposium and the contents of this book are directed toward agricultural workers who are conducting research and educational activities in the land-grant colleges, public agencies, and credit agencies. The ideas have been developed in five closely related subject matter categories: (1) capital and credit in economic growth, (2) changing capital structure in agriculture, (3) credit market and institutions, (4) values and education in relation to capital use and productivity, and (5) selected research for improving use and productivity of capital and credit. They are presented in the interest of stimulating further research and educational activities on agricultural capital and credit problems as they are related to agricultural development.

Description

Throughout most of his adult life, Jacob Peter Anderson devoted his major energies to the study of the Alaskan flora. His ultimate objective was to provide a usable Flora of Alaska, The Yukon Territory and the Northwest Territories west of Hudson's Bay. During the years 1942–53, while he was resident at Iowa State, he published nine fascicles of a preliminary version of this Flora, covering only Alaska, the Yukon Basin, and northwestern British Columbia. At the time of his death, Dr. Anderson was working on a revision of his Flora, to include the territory between Alaska and Hudson's Bay.

Permanent slides for microscopic study are indispensable in the teaching of a basic course in botany and also in specialized advanced courses. In some advanced courses, the students prepare many of the slides used in the course, but in elementary courses the slides are furnished. In the latter case, the slides either are purchased from commercial sources or made in the departmental laboratory.

Description

The American Farm Economic Association has carefully assembled this book of readings on agricultural marketing, with the hope that the present book will be useful to graduate students, researchers, administrators, and economists in the dis- tributive trades. Such persons are finding it increasingly difficult to keep in touch with the numerous books, reports, and scientific papers dealing with agricultural marketing. The readings in this book were selected to cover a wide range of subject matter, to give different points of view on some controversial matters, and to illustrate new and promising techniques of economic research. In like fashion, the Association earlier had sponsored (1949) Readings on Agricultural Policy, edited by Professor 0. B. Jesness.
