The Voice of America speaks


The Voice of America (VOANews.com) AGRICULTURE REPORT today announced a momentous discovery. Farmers, take heed: Not all vegetables have to be grown in the sun.

The owner of a garden seed company warned against removing shade trees. He cut down all his shade trees to provide more sun for his crops. But then he had to protect his summer lettuce from the heat of the sun by hanging a piece of cloth to provide shade.

Phew. Thank God for the media.
