Objectives for this study were as follows: (1)To determine if selected characteristics of production agriculture teachers were associated with differences in average net income from supervised project programs. (2)To determine if selected characteristics of production agriculture programs were associated with differences in average net income from supervised project programs. (3)To determine if selected characteristics of communities in which production agriculture programs were located were associated with differences in average net income from supervised project programs. (4)To determine if selected methods used by production agriculture teachers to plan and develop supervised project programs were associated with differences in average net income from supervised project programs. (5)To determine if perceptions held by production agriculture teachers of the values of supervised project programs were associated with differences in average net income from supervised project programs. ...
