Farm Facts is
a colorful 29-page booklet with realistic illustrations of farmers, consumers,
livestock and crops. It features charts and graphs with facts about today's
agricultural system, food consumption and safety, biotechnology, international
trade, historical highlights, and agricultural terminology. New sections on
aquaculture, silviculture, nursery and greenhouse, and the farmers' share
of the retail food dollar are included. A one-sided poster map (38 x 27) is
included with each booklet. Price: $4.25

Farm Facts provides you with the opportunity to learn more about the business of farming. I hope that it will help you better understand and appreciate the vital role farmers and ranchers play in our lives on a daily basis. Farm Facts is also a tribute to America's farmers and ranchers, the most efficient food and fiber producers in the world. It should help us put into perspective how blessed we are to be Americans.
