issues. Lt. Governor , Agriculture Commissioner Tyler Harper, Chairman Russ Goodman & Robert Dickey, and a host of other elected state leaders have all

Annual Meeting
The annual meeting is a more personal
gathering of members where we present the current events pertaining to ag, and
more specifically, how we are addressing those issues. This reception is
an opportunity for members to connect with other members, become educated on
the issues, and to see how they can get more involved. With a key-note speaker
and a cocktail reception, this is an event you'd hate to miss.
This year's event was held
on February 6, 2024 at the Embassy Suites!
