No 413449, USDA Miscellaneous from United States Department of Agriculture

Abstract: Report Foreword: The following report delineates how the Cooperative Extension system is continuing to respond and adjust its programs across the Nation to deal quickly and effectively with the farm financial crisis and its subsequent impacts on American agriculture, farm families, and rural communities. Extension programs have shifted rapidly to provide farm families with intensive assistance on their financial problems and related health and stress problems. The survey data on which this report is based indicates that Extension programs will continue to expand still further in this area during the coming year.
