Abstract | "The People and the University" Conference, held at the University of California, Davis, on June 22, 1973 was concerned with redirecting research priorities for land-grant schools, particularly work done by agricultural scientists. Also discussed were the social and human implications of the work being done in the colleges. The presentations at the conference were associated with family farms, organic farming, alternative approaches to marketing and consumer concerns, technologies that stress nonwasteful use of energy, and poverty programs. The workshop summaries include alternatives to agribusiness; alternative technologies, paths out of poverty, alternative markets, consumer needs, and economic aspects of farming. Comments are also included from university officials. The participants of the conference committee are listed. (Author/PG) |
