Joel,
RE: Request for Sustainable Ag materials:
Here is what I have so far:
Please inquire at the National Ag Library re: training and
degree
opportunities in sustainable ag. They have a publication entitled:
Educational and Training Opportunities in SA, 6th edition. It is
quite
comprehensive. Available free from the following:
NAL Alternative Farming Systems Information Center
USDA, NAL, Room 111, 10301 Baltimore Blvd., Beltsville, MD
20705-2351.
Another source: Sustainable Ag Network's SA Directory of Expertise,
available
>from Sustainable Ag Publications, Hills Bldg., Room 12, U of VT, Burlington,
VT 05405-0082.
Also, if you want to receive the packet of information that we
at
CIAS (Center for Integrated Agricultural Systems), UW-Madison,
Madison, WI
send out to prospective graduate students, please provide me with a
mailing
address. This packet is too bulky for email.
You may email your address to: TROYAN@MACC.WISC.EDU
OR PHONE ME @608-262-5200. Leave message on my voice mail if I
am not
at my desk.
Thanking you for your interest,
Selma Troyanoski, CIAS Secretary
