Need a speaker for a meeting? I have a fantastic slide show presentation which show unique things during my two tours in Iraq. If interested give me a call at 325-947-4870 or email at ronnie@wtxs.net for an appointment. I have two programs one is on the intial invasion of Iraq, it takes you through the war and ends in Baghdad showing you the situtation and some of the intial projects, concerns, and overall situtation during that time period. The second program focuses on the agricultural sector of Iraq from the producer to the Minister of Agricultural who sets policy for the country. The program usally runs aproximately 45 minutes, but can be catered to your situtation.

Looks like the Iraq farmers probably eat good and healthy too. The gardens/fields are really pretty & green. How big (acre wise) are these plots?

You would have to ask. They measure in donams which is .6175 of an acre and everything is weighed in Kilo grams(Kg). So if a guy made 1000MTonns per donam. To convert to bu/ac you would divide 1000 by 36 = 27.8Kg then divide by.6175 and be sure and round up and your answer would be 44Bu per acre. Kinda like expalining the rules for crop insurance...
