The way in which the Job Training Partnership Act (JTPA) is or is not serving the agricultural community is the focus of these proceedings. This record contains presentations and/or written testimony given by senators and representatives, by the directors of JTPA service delivery areas, by a representative from the Job Service in Iowa, by several Federal administrators of the JTPA, and by several farmers and former farmers from Iowa. The speakers and papers make the point that JTPA assistance has been almost nonexistent in agriculture, although it is an area that badly needs help, with many farmers losing their farms and many more in danger of doing so. Suggestions for ways in which JTPA agencies could serve the farming community and how the law should be interpreted to facilitate such help are included in the testimony. (KC)
