Here is the op-ed piece from the Hand that Feeds the U.S.:
Hopefully, if anyone can inspire young people to look at agriculture and influence policy makers to see the importance of agriculture as not only a national issue, but a global issue as well. I hope she continues to be a strong voice of agriculture.
Great Job Teresa, we are pretty proud of you here in Western Nebraska!
