The m
FARM SALESMANSHIP
A salesman is often described as a
whose job is to bring together
\arni the thing which best fills
need may be a natural and a
bas ic one, such as the need tor food
and shelter and clothing. Or it may
be a "created" or built-up need, of
which a common example is the auto-
mobile. For a very King time the
world got alorig nrrm well vvitkjut
motor cars 'he* ii.nln'- been invent-
ed. Now we have :o;ttc to. depend on
them to such ah f-.reof 'h.i; they are
s positive necessity to' our way of
living.
The modern farmer should be both
a production executive and a sales-
man,
The good production man is like-
ly to concentrate on making prod-
ucts tor which there is a great and
continuing demand — things for
which a need exists that he can till
to his own profit. That kind of op-
eration keeps the salesman busy and
keeps the plant running.
A good many farmers have fol-
lowed the practice of growing cer-
tain crops because their fathers grew
: he same crops, or because those
crops were regarded as especially
suited: to the soil or the climate. They
didn't plan for the market—-they ex-
pected the market to be there when
the crops were harvested.
Perhaps that is one of the basic
reasons why we today have surpluses
.it some farm products shortages in
others.
The wiser farmers today are get-
ting ro he both better production men
Mid better salesmen, They are keep-
ing up to date—studying changing
requirements and market* and plan*
ninif thou cayst; aVrordintrlv.
Sometimes changes take place very
slowly, sometimes almost over night.
Suppose, for example, that a big
.army camp was built within a few
miles of a farm that had always been
a wheat producer. The army camp
uses lots of flour, but is certainly
not a market for raw wheat. It does
offer an almost inexhaustible mark-
et for fresh vegetables. Wouldn't the
owner of that farm be wise to de-
vote some of his wheat acres to rais-
ing such vegetables as his soil and
Weather conditions would permit.
Surely he would make more profit-
lie would be combining to his own
:,dvantage the twin responsibilities of
; production man and salesman—the
production man who knows what he
; can grow most profitably, and the
j salesman who knows how to find
the most favorable market for his
goods.
And he would be going a step far-
ther as a good salesman if he made
sure that his vegetables were careful-
ly graded, and packed and shipped
in such a way as to insure deliverj
:j;' iresh condition.
Is that a new conception of farm
operation' K V; ramh if is a grow-
ing one.
