Hight Is Recipient
Of State Leaf Award
Warren County native Peter T.
Might, associate agricultural ex
tension agent in Lee County, is
one of four agents in the state who
received "Excellence in Tobac
co" Extension awards at a lun
cheon at the North Carolina State
University Faculty Club in
Raleigh Thursday.
The awards were given under
the joint sponsorship of the R. J.
Reynolds Tobacco Co. and the
N.C. Agricultural Extension
Service.
Each agent received a plaque
and $4,000 presented through the
North Carolina Tobacco Founda
tion. The purpose of the program
is to strengthen the incentives for
county extension agents to pro
vide the best possible service to
farmers in their area.
Hight, 29, is the son of Mr. and
Mrs. Stanley Hight of Macon.
He has been on the Lee County
staff since 1980. A graduate of
North Carolina State, he recent
ly completed requirements there
for a master of agriculture
degree, which he will receive in
May.
He utilized on-farm research
and demonstration plots as the
basis for his tobacco educational
program. Eight farmers from
various areas of the county have
conducted 17 demonstrations.
Tours of the plots are held each
summer.
One of Hight's strongest points
is his ability to communicate ef
fectively with all clientele,
according to program officials.
He does this through farm visits,
radio programs, news articles,
newsletters, and conducting
meetings.
Hight relies heavily on the ad
vice of the County Tobacco Com
mittee and the County Agri
culture Program Committee to
identify needs and opportunities.
Dr. William M. Hildebolt, vice
president for research and
development, R. J. Reynolds
Tobacco Co., told the luncheon
group that the tobacco industry
today is facing a period of change
that requires growers to be bet
ter informed and more involved
in solving their own problems.
"The need for rapid transfer of
the best tobacco technology and
for the development of leadership
among tobacco growers is more
urgent than ever before. County
extension agents are the most im
portant contributors to this end,"
Hildebolt said.
Dr. Chester D. Black, associate
dean and director, N.C.
Agricultural Extension Service,
presented the agent awards and
thanked Reynolds for its support
of NCSU.
Since 1962, Black said,
Reynolds has invested more than
$3.5 million in tobacco
agricultural programs at the
university.
