For 42 Japanese agricultural trainees, life at UNL in
cludes both education and international cooperation.
According to project administrator Russ Free, the
trainees, who arrived in Lincoln Jan. 9, are participating in
the Japanese Agricultural Training Program.
The program started in 1965 and is administered by
Big Bend Community College in Moses Lake, Wash., in
cooperation with the Japanese Agricultural Training
Council, the Japanese Embassy and the U.S. Departments
of State, Agriculture and Labor. This is the 15th year
UNL has participated in the program.
The trainees were selected from candidates recom
mended by governors of the prefectures (the equivalent of
an American state) where they live.
The program lasts for two years. Before coming to the
United States the students were trained in English, Ameri
can culture and the operation of farm equipment.
Field work
Once they arrive in the country and receive more
English instruction, the trainees spend four months on
host farms learning agricultural field work. They then
come to UNL, where they spend two months in classroom
training in livestock, fruit and vegetable training or orna
mental flower work.
While in Lincoln, the trainees stay with Lincoln
families, most of whom volunteer each year.
Following their stint at the university, the trainees will
spend a year working in their specialized fields. They will
then spend three more months of academic work, this
time related to their specialized interests. After one more
month of work experience, the trainees tour the United
mii tasiiiiiess,

States and then return to Japan.
According to Free, the program is financed by the
trainees themselves. The wages they make on the farms
are channeled back into the program. The students receive
a $50 to $60 allowance each month, and their host
families also share part of the expenses. Free said the
trainees don't make money, but they don't lose any
either.
Agricultural techniques
Ilideaki Kanai, 25, from Chiba prefecture near Tokyo,
'said he likes the program. He said lie joined because he
wanted to come to America and learn this country's agri
cultural techniques.
Takashi Yokishawa, 24, from Tokyo, said American
farming methods are more mechanized than those in
Japan. He said it will be difficult to introduce and apply
the methods he learned in the United States because of
the difficulty of breaking tradition.
Yokishawa said in Japan, the farmer is both a manager
and a worker, whereas the American farmer is basically a
manager.
Both students were impressed with the size of the
farms in the United States. They said Japanese farms, out
of necessity, are much smaller than their American
counterparts.
Free said the trainees don't duplicate American tech
niques in Japan, but use the knowledge they learn in the
United States to supplement their own techniques.
Free said the program is useful as a tool for learning
international cooperation and understanding. It gives the
participant an opportunity to learn about American cult
ure, he said, especially through the host families and
participation in local activities.
