About
NCDA&CS Agronomic Division, Raleigh
From both an economic and an environmental standpoint, agricultural efficiency is important to every North Carolinian. Declines in agricultural efficiency impose a widening circle of social costs: growers lose money; consumers are denied safe and affordable food and fiber; the state as a whole suffers from environmental problems; and future generations inherit a degraded resource base. Reliable agronomic information increases production and efficiency while safeguarding the environment. It forms the foundation for policies that protect the immediate interests of consumers and producers without jeopardizing the land resources upon which future generations will depend.
