You're invited to the 2021 Winter Policy Conference of the National Association of State Departments of Agriculture on Feb. 23-25, 2021. This event brings together commissioners, secretaries and directors of agriculture from across the nation to develop policies addressing food and agricultural issues.
NASDA's theme for this year is "Together at the Table," representing the importance of including diverse perspectives when advancing policy solutions, the value of partnerships and the fact that food and agriculture bring us all together. This year, we'll bring to the table conversations on diversity, inclusion and racial equity, our essential workforce, COVID-19 recovery, rural infrastructure and more. We hope you'll join us!
