Why Is Agriculture Important to You?
Dependence
on agriculture knows no boundaries. Urban and rural, wealthy and poor,
white collar or blue collar, young and old, developed nation or developing
nation, any culture, any race . . . no matter how people are classified,
agriculture is the lifeline that supports them all. Agriculture
provides all of our food, clothing, and shelter.
Each
and every day YOU make an agricultural connection.
|
Dedicated
to collecting fresh fruits and vegetables from farms, farm markets,
wholesalers and food distributors and distributing it to those
in need.
|
Providing
an opportunity for individuals involved in farming and agribusiness
to become informed, articulate leaders.
|
Helping
teachers and their students learn about agriculture and show
that what they are studying is important and useful in real life.
