On August 15, MSU Trustees Kelly Tebay, Brianna Scott, Mike Balow, and Rebecca Behar-Cook took time to visit with Michigan agriculture leaders at the Saginaw Valley Research and Extension Center. MABA thanks these Trustees for their insights, good questions and an informative conversation with farm organization and agribusiness leaders. In comments to the Trustees, we spotlighted the importance of ag innovation and supporting public trust in it; the impact of budget cuts on MSU’s efforts to support agriculture; and the positive impact made by CANR, Extension and AgBioResearch for the industry. Thank you again, Trustees, for your time and for keeping Michigan Agriculture top of mind! We would also like to thank the leadership team of the Michigan State University College of Agriculture and Natural Resources for attending, and Rob Zeldenrust for organizing this meeting and making it possible. Here are some photos from this special event:
