PEC summarizes the situation as:
“The Piedmont farmer is overworked, underpaid, overtaxed and not appreciated for the vital services he provides. He is too old to continue his work, has no'real prospect for continuation of his work, and his lancL is under threat of development by local pressures. , “The Piedmont farmer is badly off, yet little or nothing is being done to improve his lot in life. PEC pledges to continue its work into this problem, find the reasons why, and propose real solutions to keep the farmer farming and benefit all of us in the region.”^
