This! labor must be wisely if standards of living are to reach the levels we wish for b this present era of prosperity. S. Present changes in North Ca rolina's agriculture may offer new opportunities for food pro ducers and processors if approach ed properly. For Instance, North Carolina farmers were forced to reduce tobacco plantings by 137, OCD acres in 1957 to comply with control programs; and the 1957 tobacco crop In this state will be worth $150,000,000 less than the crop was in 1956. Also In 1957. North Carolina producers plant ed fewer acres of corn and fewer acres of cotton than In any year since 1900 . 6. In undertaking any food grow ing programs on a larger scale, this state will have to com pete successfully with other food producing areas of the country in acreage yields. For instance, N. C.'s present snapbean production averages only 90 bushels per acre as compared with a 270 bushel per acre yield for California. 7. There may be possibilities of Industry - agriculture cooper ation In some food production areas, Jnst as such cooperation has made it possible for this state to develop a huge broiler growing and processing business. In less than 20 years. North Carolina's broiler production has expanded from fewer than 4,000,000 broilers annually to approximately .125, 000,00, and this state processes as many broilers as It prodaees. , 8.
