College students from across the nation represent AFA on their college campuses

In continued commitment to building bridges for young leaders in agriculture, Agriculture Future of America (AFA) recently selected 22 college students to serve as organizational Ambassadors. The Ambassadors represent AFA on their respective campuses, in their geographic regions and nationally, serving in their role through March 31, 2022.

AFA Ambassadors heighten awareness of AFA programs and work to establish creative strategies to accomplish increased student involvement. Ambassadors also interact with industry professionals at various events and meetings on behalf of AFA.

“AFA was founded to serve students and there's no better way to do so than by empowering the Ambassadors as advocates for the organization and wider agriculture industry," says Mark Stewart, AFA president and CEO. “The Ambassadors work in tandem with AFA to bring premier leader and career development experiences to highly motivated young professionals studying agriculture and related fields. The 22 individuals bring passion and commitment to AFA and provide top-notch opportunities for their peers."
