farmers and ranchers have need an expended program of
research and education.
Agriculture was the state’s top industry before 1974, but
it surrendered its position because of escalating oil and gas
prices, he said, noting that farm and ranch production is
renewable while oil and gas are not.
With increased tax revenues, the state "must
aggressively and intelligently plan an agricultural re-
search and education program for this renewable industry.
“Agriculture will then be in a better position to carry a
great economic load when we no longer have the oil and
gas,” he said.
Jimmie L. Jarrell, president of the Oklahoma Farmers
Union, told the committee funding has been increased
slightly in the past two years to save a number of programs
that were at the point of cancellation.
He said funding for the Department of Agriculture
Econmics has been mingled with OSU’s general budget,
which he said was detrimental to the program.

well being drilled at 14,000 feet erupted I
dt a rate of 60 million cubic feet of gas a
day Saturday and drillers were at- l
tempting to cap it before it burst into I
