EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

INTRODUCTION

Since 1951, Farm Foundation has published the proceedings of
the annual National Public Policy Education Conference under the title
o/Increasing Understanding of Public Problems and Policies.

The publication is widely distributed each year to Extension policy
educators and used as a reference for policy education programs
across the nation.

This “Executive Summary” is designed to stimulate interest in
public policy issues, to provide educators and other interested parties
with a quick review of the major presentations given at the 1996
National Public Policy Education Conference, and to serve as a
resource for policy education programs.

This text also will be available on Farm Foundation 's home page
(http://www.farmfoundation.org) in late 1996.
