Montana farmer-stockman. [volume] (Great Falls, Mont.) 1947-1993, 1955-12-01

has come from Don Williams, chief
of USDA'S Soil Conservation Serv-
ice. He hints that increasing pOpula-
ton threatens to pull more land
from agricultural purposes than is
safe for future food and fiber pro-
ducti0n.
Pointing out that the Census Bureau
expects us. population to rise to be-
tween 2O7 and 228 million by 1875,
Williams declares that pressure on
our remaining land will continue to
increase accordingly, both for food
and fibers, and for living space and
for industrial service and other facili-
ties"
A recent SCS survey, he points out,
indicates that ''more than one million
acres of cultivable land is going into
such nonagricultura1 uses every year."
The trend, says Williams, is more than
double what SCS thought it was before
making the survey. He says further:
During the last Is years, our esti-
mates show, about IL million acres of
our --LATEST and most fertile farm lands
have been converted to agricultural
use. The problem is greatest around
large urban industrial areas and other
growing centers of population (where
there are) Withdrawals of good, level
land from agricultural production be-
cause it is cheaper to build on and
easier to handle Increased compe-
tition for available water supplies is
another disturbing factor"
