Excerpt from Planning for a Permanent Agriculture: Including a Summary of the Programs Administered by the Department of Agriculture That Influence the Use of the Land But how can we bring the technical experts and the farmers to gether so that they may pool their information and arrive at common judgments in order to guide the various public programs properly? How can farmers make the fullest use of these public programs in solving their own farm management problems? For almost 5 years the Department of Agriculture and the agricultural colleges and experiment stations have wrestled with these two questions. They decided new planning procedures were clearly needed to answer them. As an outcome of their efforts they agreed in the summer of 1938 on a method of program planning that promises to assure that farmers will have greater voice in planning the application of public programs to their local situations. They subscribed to an understanding known as the Mount Weather agreement. Under this agreement the land-grant colleges and the Department will cooperate in helping farmers to establish program planning procedures.
