Two local members of the local Farm Bureau attended the 2013 National Women’s Leadership Conference in Las Vegas.

Judy Troike and Kate Yankauskas attended eight different workshops that focused on promoting, educating and engaging consumers on the value and impact of modern day agricultural practices.

Current statistics show that less than two percent of the population is actively engaged in agriculture, but the farmers are responsible for feeding people around the world. The job of Farm Bureau is to ensure the public that the agricultural community is committed to providing safe, affordable and sustainable food and fiber using responsible and ethical practices.
