Commission extends survey deadline
Carroll County's Agricultural Commission has decided to accept agricultural surveys from area farmers past the Oct. 1 deadline, David Greene, county extension agent, said.
The survey -- which asks farmers about their operations and plans -- will be used to make recommendations to the Carroll County Planning Commission, Office of Economic Development and the county commissioners.
Results also will be used to update recommendations made by the county's Future of Agriculture Subcommittee in 1989.
Commission members have received 200 surveys, but had hoped to get at least 400, Mr. Greene said. Information: 848-4611
or 857-2131.
