gricultural science policy in the United States has profoundly affected the growth and development of agriculture worldwide, not just in the A United States. Over the past 150 years, and especially over the second th half of the 20 Century, public investments in agricultural R&D in the United States grew faster than the value of agricultural production. Public spending on agricultural science grew similarly in other more-developed countries, and c- lectively these efforts, along with private spending, spurred agricultural prod- tivity growth in rich and poor nations alike. The value of this investment is seldom fully appreciated. The resulting p- ductivity improvements have released labor and other resources for alternative uses—in 1900, 29. 2 million Americans (39 percent of the population) were - rectly engaged in farming compared with just 2. 9 million (1. 1 percent) today— while making food and fiber more abundant and cheaper. The benefits are not confined to Americans. U. S. agricultural science has contributed with others to growth in agricultural productivity in many other countries as well as the Un- ed States. The world’s population more than doubled from around 3 billion in 1961 to 6. 54 billion in 2006 (U. S. Census Bureau 2009). Over the same period, production of important grain crops (including maize, wheat and rice) almost trebled, such that global per capita grain production was 18 percent higher in 2006.

Honours are bestowed on champions. Readers will find crucial strategies on dealing with and overcoming the inevitable setbacks of life!
Certain events in our lives could get our attention in a way that we are unable to look beyond them. Finding the inner strength to push past our current circumstances, would allow us to see that they function as mile markers on the road to our God ordained destiny. Perhaps you are dealing with a storm in your life that overwhelms you - financial difficulty, failing business, marriage, children, aging parents, health; whatever, the challenge may be, know that God is with you and that this trial is part of his larger plan. Having gone through a season of financial hardship, I found myself in a place that I never expected to be after doing all the right things such as planning, tithing, saving, investing and sowing liberally. Thinking that I did something wrong, I tried everything humanly possible to solve this conundrum, but nothing worked. I wondered if God had forsaken me and if so, why. But in the moments when I was at my lowest financially, emotionally and quite frankly felt like giving up, God would reveal himself through a nudge from the Holy Spirit, often through a scripture, a song, closing a deal unexpectedly or some form of reminder that he is with me. His Undeniable Presence chronicles some of the times God's presence was manifested in the eye of my storm, my darkest moments. It covers three stages of the journey, from the valley to guidance to restoration. The devotional messages would inspire and give you hope and courage to endure the challenges you may be facing.

In Pursuit of His Glory is a journey into Gods plan to restore His glory to the temple in this end time hour. Is the glory of God the answer to the question of how God will birth end time revival? Has he promised that the end time glory will exceed the former glory experienced in the Old Testament temple? Could national revival be birthed in a single day? Is it possible that man will once again hear the audible voice of God? In this book, we will explore these possibilities as we endeavor to birth within each reader a fresh and renewed hunger for the manifest presence of the Lord. Since he personally experienced the presence of Gods glory, Pastor Hurst has been on a quest to once again enter this most holy place. His quest was heightened in January of 2003 after he experienced a most unusual visitation from the Holy Spirit.
