Libey, Associate Professer, Aquaculture; Department of Fisheries and Wildlife Sciences, Virginia Tech Introduction Answer Yes or No Fish Farming Publications Selected Fish Farming Books ... Organizations Fish farming is an ancient practice that can provide many profitable opportunities today. The raising and selling of fish on a commercial basis has proven to be economically successful throughout the United States. In Virginia, fish farming is growing in popularity. Increasing recognition that fish is a healthy food, low in calories and cholesterol levels, but rich in protein has increased consumer demand in both restaurants and supermarkets. Consumption of fish products is increasing dramatically and now averages about 14 pounds/person/year in Virginia. Fish are excellent animals to rear. They can convert feed into body tissue more efficiently than most farm animals, transforming about 70 percent of their feed into flesh. Fish also have excellent dress-out qualities, providing an average of 60 percent body weight as marketable product and a greater proportion of edible, lean tissue than most livestock. Fish can be intensively cultured in relatively small amounts of water. In Virginia, they can be farmed at densities near 2,000 pounds/acre with careful management. Farm-reared fish offer a new alternative agricultural crop that can potentially replace those which are declining in popularity or profitability. Healthy farm-reared fish, guaranteed free of diseases, pesticides, and other harmful toxicants, are a more desirable substitute for wild fish from potentially polluted waters.

Pricing One 10000acre tract of land along the mississippi River leased for $10 an acreand returned Pricing for services. Wyo. coop. ext. Serv., Laramie. 12 p. http://uwadmnweb.uwyo.edu/RanchRecr/handbook/pricing.htm
Extractions: Pricing It Right the First Time Determining the right price to charge for the ranch recreation experience is difficult for a rancher with no experience in the business. Too often ranchers underestimate what their services are worth to potential customers. Living in rural areas, they take for granted such things as the scenery and seeing wildlife. They may not recognize that urban and suburban hunters view the ranch as a place "to get away from it all." But urbanites are eager to enjoy these pleasures and look forward to hunting season with great anticipation. As soon as one year's hunting is ended, they often start planning next year's and may schedule their hunting vacations many months or a year in advance. Hunting on your ranch is therefore the fulfillment of someone's year-long dream. If you fulfill it well, you can price accordingly.
Natural Resources Extension Professionals Conference Chris Waddill, Dean and Director, Florida cooperative extension service, Universityof University of Arkansas coop. ext. service, Little Rock, AR http://conference.ifas.ufl.edu/nrep/
Extractions: The Cooperative Extension Service was established to provide a non-traditional approach of applying research knowledge to help resolve community issues. Extension has developed a strong tradition and an excellent reputation for serving the same clientele base extremely well. However, this tradition is now preventing Extension from effectively addressing many other issues that have emerged during the past century. The theme to be explored during this conference is whether another rapid (revolutionary) or a more gradual (evolutionary) rate of change should occur to make Extension more relevant in todays communities and the role of natural resource extension programming in this revision. Who Should Attend Natural resource extension professionals and those who work with or would like to partner with these educators in environmental education, fisheries, wildlife, range, forestry, forest products, toxicology, ecotourism, water conservation and quality, sea grant, public policy, nature interpretation, watershed planning, ecological economics, rural development and other related disciplines. The primary audience consists of three groups: 1) Extension personnel at state 1862, 1890 and 1994 Land Grant Institutions (county faculty, county directors, district directors, specialists, department chairs, state program leaders and state directors); 2) National program leaders, and other staff with the USDA Cooperative State Research, Education and Extension Service; 3) Natural resource educators from other governmental agencies and private not-for-profit organizations.

Wiley, New York. FRUIT CROPS Alabama Florida Georgia ... Table 3 There are many reasons for the upsurge in interest in new horticultural crops. One industry expert (Cook 1990) reported that during the period between 1978 and 1989, consumption of fresh produce in the United States expanded 23%. The retail produce industry is now worth $32 billion. While the aging of American consumers also is a factor which can lead to overall reduced food purchases, it also has the potential for proportional increases in fresh fruit and vegetable consumption. Americans between the ages of 55 and 64 consume 39% more fresh fruit and 34% more fresh vegetables than the national average. As consumers move into their peak income-earning years, they purchase more high-value products and look for greater diversity. According to Manning (1990), the American produce industry has been riding the crest of a powerful demographic wave which will flatten by the year 2000. Manning predicts that although the nutritional appeal of fresh fruits and vegetables will continue, health options for consumers will increase; growers will need to create more demand and retailers will need to be convinced that consumers will pay more for produce before raising wholesale prices.
My Master Gardener Page Los Angeles Master Gardeners , Univ. of Calif. coop. ext. Florida Countycooperative extension service Master Gardener Coordinators http://www.hal-pc.org/~trobb/mastgar.html
Extractions: You are visitor A separate and distinct area of gardening is that of the Master Gardener - the voluntary arm of the Agricultural Extension Services. As a Past President and member of the Harris County Master Gardener Association (Houston, Texas), I am more familiar with the Texas Master Gardener program but Master Gardening is nationwide in scope and on this page I will be attempting to put it all together. I am often asked the question, "Who and what are 'Master Gardeners'"? The following comments, questions and answers are geared primarily to the Texas Master Gardener Program. However, with slight differences, they also apply to all 50 states since all now have "Master Gardener Programs". They also generally apply in the four Canadian provinces with the program except for the sponsorship of Cooperative Extension agencies. Master Gardeners are members of the local community who take an active interest in their lawns, trees, shrubs, flowers and gardens. They are enthusiastic, willing to learn and to help others, and able to communicate with diverse groups of people. What really sets Master Gardeners apart from other home gardeners is their special training in horticulture. In exchange for their training, persons who become Master Gardeners contribute time as volunteers, working through their cooperative Extension office to provide horticulture-related information to their communities.
