Abstract
Farmers talked freely at these forums and brought forward many issues. Many felt that more leadership should be given to farmers in their development and administration. The use of speakers and facilitators was viewed as helpful provided it didn't take time away from producer participation. Forums such as these can be effective means to develop support. The results of these forums, as judged by the pursuit of several ongoing measures, has been positive, and may be employed again.
