CITRUS GROWERS PLAN INSTITUTE PROGRAMS
Citrus Grower Advisory Committee members of Highlands, Hardee, Polk, Sarasota, DeSoto and Manatee Counties helped
plan the program of this Institute as they have done in the past nine Institutes. They worked directly with the Agricul-
tural Extension Service Citrus Specialists to develop a program that is vital, current, and of interest to you. This will
be continued, and from them, and other growers like them, will come your INSTITUTE PROGRAMS of the future........
