Extract

With the passage of the Rural Development Act of 1972 (Public Law 92–419), every state in the nation was challenged to provide rural development assistance through the land-grant universities. Operating under flexible guidelines, each state has proceeded differently. Comparison of various states’ programs provides some new insights on effective rural development programming.
