| Though there are many challenges facing extension economists, there are significant opportunities to serve rural America and fully participate in our profession. National studies have reconfirmed extension as an integral part of our land grant mission, and a survey of chairs of departments of agricultural and resource economics shows that 87% indicate that there is increased or constant pressure by the public for programming by extension economists. Retirement estimates provided by chairs suggest it is likely that at least one-half of new faculty hired over the next five years will have extension appointments. Perhaps most importantly, there are critical societal issues to which extension economists can make valuable contributions. |

| A long-term whole-farm analysis compared conventional and low-input farming systems. Data from a nine-year agronomic study at the Rodale Research Farm, Kutztown, Pennsylvania, were used to analyze profitability, liquidity, solvency, and risk on a representative commercial grain farm. Conventional and low-input farms participating in government programs are the most profitable scenarios, followed by conventional and low-input farms not participating in government programs. All farms increased their net worth. The low-input approach is advantageous for risk-averse farmers using a safety-first criterion. |
