Brooke Rollins, the United States Secretary of Agriculture honors the work of producers through an appreciation video on National Agriculture Day.
Secretary Rollins says she is no stranger to agriculture life through her involvement in 4-H and FFA—she adds the organization taught her it’s about more than just work, but about perseverance, innovations and respect for the land.
Rollins says, the men and women in agriculture show up every day to ensure the future of the industry. She asks instead of celebrating agriculture you show your appreciation by celebrating the individuals behind the industry
In the video, Rollins is accompanied by Governors from across the country and they all give thanks to the industry for “fueling the states”.
