Agriculture is an ever-changing industry that is vital to the success of our country. This industry is the foundation on which our country was built, and the catalyst that will propel us into the future. With new technology, cultural changes, and information at our finger tips, agriculture must be on the forefront to feed the world, provide cures for disease, fuel the nation, and educate consumers. PA Farm Bureau is dedicated to "Securing the Future of Agriculture", and in order to do that, every county Farm Bureau needs to take an active role in engaging today's youth. The youth of today are tomorrow's leaders and the future of agriculture. By taking time to educate and engage young people, it will guarantee the success of agriculture, and Farm Bureau, for generations to come.
