What we do

Empower young leaders making an impact in food and agriculture

Agriculture is essential to the future of our interconnected world. We need leaders ready to meet tomorrow’s challenges — things like food security, sustainable energy and environmental quality — head-on. That’s where we come in. Our programmatic experiences and scholarships help dynamic, diverse young leaders develop their personal skills and prepare for careers in the food, agriculture and natural resources industries.
