The President of the OWGA, Paul Fruendt, believes that this has been a great partnership that they have formed by joining other commodity groups that are a part of this Council. The Council is the host of the 2013 edition of the Ag Issues Summit that is being held this year in downtown Oklahoma City.


The summit includes a robust program of speakers to touch on such topics as the farm bill, agricultural trade, endangered species impacts, and more. Featured speakers include House Committee on Agriculture Chairman Frank Lucas (R-Okla.), futurist Jim Wiesemeyer, and Cook Political Report's David Wasserman. Renowned cowboy poet Waddie Mitchell will also be speaking at this year's event.
