Farmers, cattle raisers, fishermen
Gamers. packers, manufacturers, whole

From this you will see that you can
become a part of the industry If you
are able to do one of number of tasks.
Each division of the business calls for
different talents. One man could not
possess them all, so you will have to de-
eide early what branch is most likely to
suit your abilities best and offer you
the greatest chance of success.
You can learn only by experience. be-
cause no one is qualified to fill any po-
sition capably until he knows the prob
lens involved and demonstrates ability
to master them. Consequently it is
impossible to tell in any really specific
form what qualifications are needed to
succeed in the food industry.
Generally speaking, you must possess
a real desire toward intelligence, adapt

determination. In addition you will
need a certain amount of luck. You
may succeed without all these virtues,
