Dear Jim:
May we kindly request your taking some time from your busy
schedule to meet informally with a distinguished element of our
constituency when they visit Washington in April?
You may remember the California Agricultural Leadership Program
is a select group of men and women actively involved in all phases of
our home state's agribusiness community. Every year, for the past
twelve years, the program has selected on a very competitive basis, 30
to 35 exceptionally promising agriculturalists to visit other states
in the Union and foreign lands. They typically range in age from late
twenties to early forties and many have graduate degrees in their
specialized fields. A week in their Nation's Capital is a most
important part of their exposure to agriculture's role in the United
States and throughout the world.
If at all possible, could it be arranged for you to informally
meet with the group on Thursday, April 21? It would be most
worthwhile to the Program's Washington plans and we would be most
grateful for any accommodation which could be made. Please advise
Stacey Edgington at 225-5861, of a convenient time that day.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
JERRY Jerry LEWIS.L.C.

Agricultural
Leadership
Program
Investing in California Agriculture's
Number One Commodity, "The Human Resource"
Every year, 30 of California's most promising
young men and women are selected from the
agricultural community to participate in a two-
year educational program designed to enhance
the leadership and long-term future of farming
in the Golden State.
This is called the Agricultural Leadership
Program. It was originated by a handful of far-
sighted men who were deeply concerned about
the future of agriculture in California. They were
concerned about three major problem areas:
First, while California is the nation's leading
agricultural state, it is also the most urbanized,
and there is a yawning gap of communication and understanding between
urban and rural interests.
Second, California is increasingly dependent on international markets for its
agricultural products, and it is necessary that its farm leaders become familiar
with those overseas markets.
Third, while there is a great diversity in California's agricultural products,
the economic, social, and political interests of all farm groups are nearly iden-
tical. It is imperative, therefore, that close ties be built and maintained between
all sectors of agriculture in the state.
The Agricultural Leadership Program recognizes that the emerging leaders of
California agriculture must be prepared to deal with these three major problem
areas. It says, in effect, that agriculture's greatest resource is its young men and
women. It provides a vehicle for identifying those young leaders and helping to
prepare them for the task ahead.
The Program consists of a series of seminars held at four participating uni-
versities, a two-week tour in the United States, and a three-week foreign tour.
The four universities are the University of California at Davis, California State
University at Fresno, California State Polytechnic University at Pomona, and

California Polytechnic State University at San Luis Obispo.
the
During their two years of training, the participants are involved a total of 70
two-
to 80 days in the Program. Since a class starts each year and runs for two years,
there are always two classes, with a total of 60 trainees, running at any one time.
Each year there are more than 100 applicants for the 30 coveted appoint-
ments. Applicants must be between the ages of 27 and 40.
The Program is supported and administered as a nonprofit foundation by a
of

broad coalition of individuals, companies, and institutions who are interested in
