The rising sun of a new era in agriculture. A new generation. A Brighter Future. Seen through the eyes of an FFA member, tomorrow is as bright as that sun pushing its way between earth and sky. Vocational agriculture instruction, which is the basis for the FFA program, trains a new generation of agriculturists who are ready for action in agricultural careers. With some prodding to create discovery; with some recommendation to select the right career; with some motivation to apply oneself; with some incentive to go-the-extra-mile; with some guidance to plan ahead and establish goals; with some self-taught respect for the past; and with some encouragement from others who are happy in an agricultural career, a high school freshman is led through the instructional program of vocational agriculture and through participation in the leadership laboratory of FFA. Emerging is a future leader for America's agriculture. Currently there are 500,000 trainees, or student-members, involved in-volved in over 8,000 local high school programs.

Preface: From man's earliest beginnings, his most valuable commodity has been food, his most important practice agriculture - the art, science, and business of food production. This fact is often taken for granted because food production continues smoothly and, for the most part, without interruption. The true value of food seems to become apparent only during a food shortage or with the threat of a shortage in the near future. In such a time the facts surrounding food production become more important to a more concerned people. It has been said that "without food, nothing else matters." If this is true, then the preservation preser-vation of our food producers - our farmers and ranchers - along with their necessary resources and transportation channels, should be our first responsibility as citizens. It is unfortunate, but true, that most of us as Americans have only a vague understanding of precisely what resources farmers , need and how they use them. We are also ignorant . of the consequences of failing to protect their supplies. As a nation we have never experienced food shortages. shor-tages. However, unless we exert continual effort to protect and further expand our resources, these shortages may occur. The world now finds itself in a most interesting position. Never before in the history of man has it been necessary to depend on so few people to produce food for everyone. In the United States, fewer than five percent of our population produce the food for most of our domestic needs. There are few countries in the world where farmers far-mers are in the majority. Ihe vocation of food production is not without risk. Weather and climate can drastically affect annual production. Only recently have farmers learned how they can modify somewhat the effects of physical factors. fac-tors. More research needs to be done in this area to help insure protection. Although it seems the percentage of the population dealing with food production is small, the protection and expansion ex-pansion of resources concerns all of us. Food production is still a major role of man. RCA Color TV Sale! f rca . B;'8 i ! j ,.100 LU: : .if! I diagonal j I I. !l!
