Farmers and Marketing
Farmers like to shoot for
numbers in marketing. TJi£
more people who eat their
product the better. Num-
bers will always be impor-
tant but W. E. Black, Ex-
tension mai keting econo-
m i s t believes farmers
should start paying more
attention to tho kind of peo-
ple who eat what, farmers
nroduce. Eating habits
change and demands for
food soon reflect them, says
the economist. Therefore,
it's important for producers
to know *h? kind of people
who eat their products.
