Agriculture Possibilities
Are Unlimited in Columbia
The large undeveloped
areas of Colombia, South
America soon could become
major food producing centers
In the world, since Colombian
agricultural development has
endless possibilities, said Dr.
Donald Edwards, coordinator
of an Agricultural Engineer
ing team that toured the area.
The team of eight students
and three staff members from
the University of Nebraska
Agricultural Engineering
department, sees a tremen
dous future for the Colom
bians, based on development
of millions of acres of very
fertile farm land.
Two major problems facing
the country are transportion
and storage of agricultural
products. If the U.S. can
assist in solving these pro
blemG, full-scale production of
farm products can be
developed.
This production would need
to be accompanied b y
modernization of fa r m 1 n g
techniques and machinery.
Edwards added. However,
Cinema '68
The Nebraska Union will
screen Edgar Allen Poe's
"The Pit and the Pendulum,"
a Vincent Price adaptation of
the writer's chiller.
The film stars Price, John
Kerr and Barbara Steele.
The film will be shown in
the Nebraska Union
auditorium, Thursday at 7:00
p.m.
Admission is fifty cents
with a summer identification
card.
Women's Swimming
Each afternoon from 2:30 to
3:30, women students or wom
en faculty may participate in
recreational swimming in the
Coliseum Pool. There is a 10c
fee. Tofels and suits are pro
vided but each swimmer is
asked to bring her own swim
ming cap.
Colombian farmers are much
further advanced than many
people realize, he said.
He explained by saying it
is not uncommon to see big
new tractors in the fields
beside oxen and mules.
Edwards explained the
partial mechanization a s
basically an economics pro
blem reflected by the inability
of the country to distribute
its goods.
Many farm products are
consumed within a few miles
of the point of production
a reflection of poor
transportation and storage.
Another key problem in
modern farm machinery is
availability of repairs. They
have tractors from all over
th world "tractors that
have been traded for coffee"
dui mey nave no repairs
lor tnern, he added.
Edwards reports that many
areas in Colombia have
various crops and growing
climates, it may be possible
to produce from one to four
crops a year, resulting in a
very high total output.
Their basic crop include
rice, wheat, corn, potatoes,
sugar cane, cotton, and cof
fee. .
Livestock in the area in
clude cattle, hogs, sheep,
goats, horses, mules, donkeys
and poultry. Edwards ex
plained that cattle production
is significant and growing but'
that the quality of beef needs
to be improved. Most of the
cattle are fattened on grass
for three to four years, he
said.
New advances in Colombian
agriculture include irrigation,
drainage, adoption of new
crops and crossbreeding of
livestock.
The purpose of the XU trip
was to acquaint the faculty
with needs of the areas so
that they will be more able
to educate the Mexican and
Colombian students who come
to the University of Nebraska
for graduate study. It also
provided an opportunity for
students to gather informa
tion on Latin American
agriculture and to exchange
Ideas with Colombian
students.
Five students who took the
trip will write papers on ir
rigation, ground water
res ources, transportation, j
mechanization, and farm
management in these areas, i
They will receive three hours !
of . University credit for this!
work. i
The MJ team returned to1
Lincoln June 12, after a 13

team include:

The University of Nebraska
Extension Division will con
duct a two-week training in
stitute in the teaching of basic
literacy t o disadvantaged
adults June 17-28.

the State Department o f
Education and the U.S. Office
of Education, is supported by
funds made available by the
Adult Education Act of 1966.

area of Adult Basic Education
are expected to attend the
institute designed to increase
their teaching effectiveness
and to prepare participants
to assume leadership in rais
ing the education levels of
disadvantaged adults in their
home communities.
The curriculum oi the in
stitute will include education,
psychology, s o c i o 1 o g y , .
guidance and counseling. The j
