It is the only way to make them so. to us, our farms and ranches would Goethe have been wastelands years ago, and hunger would be the order of the day, not the continual abundance we all enjoy. Ashby said farmers and ranchers, as a process of improving their productivity and profitability, have taken the following steps to improve their environmental record: As environmental advances are made available through technology, farmers and ranchers are implementing new production techniques that help them operate smarter and are more economical. Todays farmers and ranchers are true professionals. They increasingly test soil and plant tissue before applying fertilizers. They do not apply unnecessary chemicals. Most are trained and certified in the use of agricultural chemicals. Many also employ application techniques that put chemicals only where they are needed.

You must develop a rapport with the person, and memory loss may mean you will hitfve to that rapport' each time you approach the person. Do not assume he will recognize you. Identify yourself, dont risk embarrassment or frustration by asking if he knows you. Be sure he is aware of your presence so you dont startle him. This is particularly important when the person has some sensory deficits. If you must repeat instructions, be patient, the person is not forgetting just to antagonize you; he has lost his recent memory abilities because of his expression or stance, since these will most likely heighten his agitation. Stay approximately four feet from the person -- - close enough to develop rapport and pro- - tect him, but far enough to lower the risk of physical assault. Do not attempt to touch the person who is angrily swinging his arms or legs. Keep your arms at your sides so as to be yet ready to block a blow if needed. At Richfield Care Center, we have a special unit with people specially trained to work with demented individuals. If youre in need of help or guidance in dealing with a demented or aggressive person, wed love to be of help.
