    Notes:
    7 p., The increasing use of computers on the farm raises the question of whether these new skills will be valued in off-farm employment. Data suggests that computers are used predominantly for a single group of tasks that may not develop the "systems skills" that are becoming increasingly important in off-farm employment.
