Of u. S. Worker is 39. The average age of the u. S. Farm operator is 55. There are not young people going into farming and we have to ask why. We need young people to enter into the farming industry. We need farming to be economically viable for young people and to supply restaurants like me the stuff that i need because what happens at my restaurant ultimately filters out to the rest of society. If you look at this chart, im not going to go into all the details of it, but you basically have a v...

Leave. [applause]. Lets talk about Workforce Development. That seems to be the kind of thing that americans do not think about when they think about the positives of the u. S. Economy. We dont have stem education, were behind the rest of the world and this, this, that, and the other thing. Yet part of the reason why the direct investment comes from japan is because of the workforce as it is and can be described. When it comes to the plan at least 2000 people are needed to walk with us.
