Congratulations are in order for Troy Hadrick—a cattle producer from South Dakota—who earned #Ag Tweet of the Week status. It seems Troy attended the Iowa Ag Youth Institute Conference in Ames last week and came away pretty self-assured that the young people headed into ag are bound to make us proud.
That’s good news in itself but also in light of some USDA statistics, which show a definite need for youth in ag-related careers. You can read more about that in today’s AgWired blog post “Who Are the Next Generation of Food Producers?”. We’d love to hear from some up-and-coming aggies. Give us a tweet and let us know what you’re up to.
