And would you please recommend a r-eally good and readable book on the best type of farming that would promote maximum production-- Would you say Collective or State Farming is best or would you say privately owned farms? However do pl recommend the best book you know for laymen( and state the publishers ) to enable me to put up the matter to our Commi Needless to add, readers in Asia are very much intereste books on unemployment and agricultural production as these economic problems occupy# most of their time. 3.
