Abstract

dc:description.abstract

In this study eighty farmers were interviewed. As far as the writer was able to determine, this number represented over fifty per cent of the farmers who received one-half or more of their income from the farm as cash or family food. If the number interviewed may be considered to constitute a valid study, several conclusions are formulated.
