While farmers have been workin K to increase the carrying capacity of their pasture land, people in cities, in increasing numbers, are concerned about the carrying capacity of the farm ? how many consumers per farmer. According to J. . L. Stewart, h Chairman of the Jackson County ; PMA Committee, about 130 years | ago one farmer was able to prof duce enough for himself and famj ily and 3l/2 people living in town. \ That meant that one farmer was I able to provide the fo^d and fiber to meet the needs of 3Vfe additional people ? merchants, lawyers, i doctors, carpenters, and others. But today, says Mr. Stewart, each farmer is producing enough for his own needs and that of his family and in addition, enough for 13 Vfe people who are not farming. That's an increase of 10 people per "farmer or nearly four times as* many as one farmer provided for 130 years ago. Although currently there is an abundance of some farm commodities ? more than can be marketed at-fair prices of some commodities ? the chairman explains that population is increasing about 2 million per year and the number of consumers depending on one farmer can be expected to " increase. * That is one of the main reasons, ? he points out, why the country can not afford to waste soil and water s resources. To use these resources ^ to produce more than is needed 5 now is one way to waste these re* sources. Another waste is to use s this land to create other surpluses 1 or to allow land taken out of surr dIus croDs to deteriorate through lack of protection from erosion 01 - the waste in growing weeds.

Now with the problem > of surplus crops and diverted acres ?r again facing the nation, there is 1 still greater need for basic understanding and a close working to, gether of the two groups. As Chairman Stewart sees it, "Farmers of ' Jackson County have a primary i responsibility to the consumers, a i major part of which is to protect consumer interests by conserving f the source of food and fiber. Con; sumers, on the other hand, should understand why it is necessary to i adjust production so that farmers ' may continue to provide a balanced abundance of agricultural i commodities without wasting soil."
