Abstract
DR. B. A. KEEN'S article in NATURE of September 5, p. 282, does well to invite the attention of research workers to the possible future developments in agricultural education and research in Great Britain. It may be regretted that Dr. Keen sought to restrict his remarks to arable agriculture. I venture to hope, with Sir George Stapledon, that our future agriculture will be ley farming, and that most of our farmland will cease to be classifiable into the rigid categories of 'grass' and 'arable'. This, however, is a minor point.
