Diversity was the simple message Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack shared with FFA members at the 89th National FFA Convention. He encouraged each young person to be proud of our history in agriculture and to use their voice to tell that inspiring story.
"I am here first and foremost today to thank FFA for it's commitment to diversity. Each of you has the opportunity in a small but important way to advance the cause of agriculture in this country through diversity."
