Barker, an executive of St. Red

Jacksonville, Fla.
“Ground level surveys by foJ

The satellite monitoring prom
which is called LAND-SAT, tij
up remarkably clear color plaj
maps covering 13,000 square

about 220 feet can be distinguisl
when the picture is blown up,
The satellite transmits these
tures both to ground collecting
tions and to NASA Goddard

Barker said St. Regis envisag
the program as a four-stage al

Held up before the eye of
world, America’s farmers have if
rural values erode as the changi
pace of agriculture shifts toanurl
perspective.
Accompanying the shift has bet
a mass exodus from rural com®
nites, a trend one agricultural histt
rian feels is regrettable.
“It’s the great dislocation, ®
Dr. David Schob of Texas Ail
University. ‘‘People are liteitl

thought they were different frs
their city brothers.” '
What has happened? Teehnolt*
of agri-business has displaced i

American rural values, Schob
Farmers are part of the nation
scene now, explains Schob. There

a change in perspective.
Prior to 1914, the Americi
farmer was largely self-sufficiei
emphasizes Schob. Today, 75 j*
cent of his inputs are supplied&i
off the farm.
“He is part of the Americancd
sumer scene,” Schob said. “Tl 11
find it much easier to buy what lb
need, rather than growing it.”
In addition, the rural commu®
has become fragmented, he si*
Values that drew farmers
have in many ways, disappeared
“There is a nostalgia kicl
America,” Schob said. “Americi
are seeking the roots they belie
were valuable in the pastoral lift
rural America.”
“People dream of something^
has been lost. We don’t realized
values until they are gone.
In one of the leading agriculW
states, Texas, the majority oH !
