NEOhio Agribusiness Forum Breakfast

June 28, 2013

7:30 am - 9:00 am

"Pillars of Agriculture Literacy – Understanding the intersection between agriculture and society"

Presented by Sandy Kuhn – Director of Commodity Relations, Ohio Farm Bureau Federation

The need of those in AgriBusiness to effectively communicate with Society, has never been greater. The disconnect between consumers, especially those in urban settings, and the farms that feed them continues to grow. As more consumers demand locally grown and organic products, and agribusiness invents newer technologies to meet that increased demand, the need to effectively speak to consumer groups about the business of agriculture is of paramount importance. How do you, as an agribusiness professional, communicate with the general public about our industry? The American Farm Bureau Federation (AFBFA) has created The Pillars of Agriculture Literacy program to provide a framework of standards for increasing your ability to close the gap between you and your consumers.
Join us for a full buffet country breakfast and learn how you, the AFBFA, and the agribusiness community can engage society at all levels of education, from elementary ages to adult learners.
