National Collegiate Agricultural Ambassadors
Twenty college students were recently selected to serve as National Collegiate Agricultural Ambassadors. These ambassadors will spend the next year promoting agricultural awareness to different local school and community groups in their state.

To date, over 1,300 presentations have been given to over 62,000 people since the program began in 2006.
The ambassadors went through an application and interview process before being selected. For their year of service to the program, they will receive a $1500 scholarship and the use of a digital camera, lap top and LCD projector.
