College, November 29-December I AGRICULTURE— Can the markets for agricultural products be expanded fast enough to reduce surpluses? An Assistant Secretary of Agriculture will discuss the building of both domestic and foreign markets for farm prod ucts. Live animal demonstrations at the Beef Cattle Center will highlight the newest developments in cattle, swine, sheep, and poultry research. A new approach for determining optimum levels of farm profits — linear programming — will be demonstrated. Texas A. & M. specialists will use this technique on an actual farm situation in deciding the most profitable crop and livestock enterprises. The problems of farm or ranch incorporation will be discussed from a management and legal viewpoint. BANKING — The Deputy Manager of the Agricultural Commission of the American Bankers Association will discuss 10 ways a bank can carry out an effective agricultural program. An outstanding commercial farmer will speak at the banquet on the topic “A Farmer Looks at His Banker.” If you are banking on the future, the discussion of the 1960 production and price outlook for major Texas farm and ranch commodities will be a feature you will not want to miss. Changes in farm production costs during 1960 will also be summarized. The Chairman of the Outlook and Situation Board of the United States Department of Agriculture will be in charge of the outlook session. CREDIT — How large does a farm or ranch need to be and what are the capital requirements needed to produce a given income level for the various types of farms and ranches in Texas? These questions and related topics will be explored by a panel of economists with the Department of Agricul tural Economics and Sociology at Texas A. & M. Commodity price sup ports, acreage allotments, and soil and water conservation programs influence farm profits and the extension of credit. The most recent legis lative developments and administrative rulings affecting governmental agricultural programs will be reviewed by a top official of the Texas Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Office.
