FUTURE MARKETING CONFERENCE IN WELLINGTON P.A. WELLINGTON, Thursday. The future of world agriculture, whether it should be conducted haphazardly from both the producing and the marketing ends, or should be an industry subject to international planning, assisted by the producers themselves, will be the subject under discussion at a conference in Wellington on January 11 between the United Kingdom farmers' delegation and the executives of primary producers' organisations convened by the New Zealand Farmers' Union. This wil! be the first conference to be addressed by the British delegation on post-war agricultural problems, the urgency of which has after many years brought about the complete collaboration of > the National Farmers' Union of England and Wales, the National Farmers' Union and Chamber of Agriculture of Scotland and the Ulster Farmers' Union of Northern Ireland. These three farmers' organisations, representing a combined membership of 225,000, have members in the delegation. Just what proposals the United Kingdom delegates intend to put forward at the conference on January 11 is not definitely known, but it is considered that the extent to which New Zealand farmers are willing to co-operate in the solving of post-war problems will be the measuring rod of the ultimate success of the tour. The delegation leaves for Blenheim to-morrow on the first stage of the South Island tour.
