Exchange Region, ( BY TERRY POPE For three students who toured Orton Plantation and Old Brunswick Town for the first time Monday morning, Nigeria and China must have seemed far, far away. However, helping to gap the distance between Brunswick County and other nations is the whole ideal behind the student exchange program sponsored by the Brunswick County Agriculture Extension Service. The exchange program is the creation of lx>ng Beach resident Julia ISeibert, who has seen her idea expanded to involve many North ~r Carolina counties anu ouici states as well. Being able to meet people "without seeing the labels" is the whole idea of the program, said county extension agent Mary Russ. Three students, two from Nigeria, who are studying agriculture at N.C. A&T University, and one from the PCOp'.C O puunL ui V. 11 i 11 < 1, WIIU IS studying agriculture at N.C. State University, are touring the county this week to study local methods of farming and rural life. The public will also get a chance to meet the exchange students at a covered dish dinner tonight (Thursday) at 6:30 p.m. in the public assembly building at the Brunswick County Government Complex in Bolivia. Participating in this year's tour is Kabiru Badamasi of Nigeria, Esther Gadzama, also a native of Nigeria, and Jufu Chen of the People's Farm Survey L, Begins AAay 20 An enumerator from Beulaville, Forest Brinson, will interview , Brunswick County farmers beginning May 20 as part of a nationwide i survey to identify 1985 crop acreage and livestock numbers. Brinson is with the field service of the N.C. Crop and livestock Reporting Service. He will collect information on crop acreages already planted or planned for 1985 and the 'framBcr of livestock on hand. I Individual information remains confidential and is used only 4o develop official national and some '"a stale estimates. Results of this survey are expected to provide farmers, merchants, policymakers and other agricultural data users with an overall picture of what to expect from agriculture this year. The report on 1985 crop acreages should be released July 10. including estimates of yield and production for several major crops. Hog and pig f numbers will be released June 21 and cattle numbers on July 22. Brinson will survey Brunswick, New Hanover and Pender counties. Sess/o i ircuui 1 $3si< 1 " Unb Sessi ^lir Hwy. 13fl I ?

"They will tell about their way of life, or what family life is like in their native country," Ms. Russ said. Those attending the dinner will have a chance to ask the students questions about their country and their reactions to Brunswick County. Badamasi is working toward a degree in agricultural education at N.C. A&T. He is touring the county primarily ru gei a view ot uie types 01 produce marketing techniques, everything from roadside stands to mass marketing of tobacco. After obtaining a degree, he hopes to teach college and become a planner for a farm worked by others. Badamasi will be sharing photos and will also talk about his family in Nigeria.
