Abstract:

The student majoring in agriculture today is faced with an entirely different situation than that of former years. In the past, many students in agriculture selected such a major intending either to return to the land or to buy land after graduating, and going into farming or ranching. Today, the high capitalization required to start in either field all but precludes such a plan; and about the only way for a student to get into ranching or farming is either to marry it or inherit it.
