AAEA Supports National Ag Day

March 16, 2018Events, The ByLine

 

2018 National Ag Day
Agriculture Council of America Announces 2018 National Ag Day Date & Theme

The Agriculture Council of America (ACA) will host National Agriculture Day on March 20, 2018. This will mark the 45th anniversary of National Ag Day which is celebrated in classrooms and communities across the country. The theme for National Ag Day 2018 is “Agriculture: Food For Life.”

On March 20, 2018, ACA will host major events in the nation’s capital including an event at the National Press Club as well
as a Taste of Agriculture Celebration. Additionally, the ACA will bring approximately 100 college students to Washington to
deliver the message of Ag Day.

These events honor National Agriculture Day and mark a nationwide effort to tell the true story of American agriculture
and remind citizens that agriculture is a part of all of us. A number of producers, agricultural associations, corporations,
students and government organizations involved in agriculture are expected to participate.
National Ag Day is organized by the Agriculture Council of America. ACA is a nonprofit organization composed of leaders in
the agricultural, food and fiber community, dedicating its efforts to increasing the public’s awareness of agriculture’s role
in modern society.

The National Ag Day program encourages every American to:

  • Understand how food and fiber products are produced.
  • Appreciate the role agriculture plays in providing safe, abundant and affordable products.
  • Value the essential role of agriculture in maintaining a strong economy.
  • Acknowledge and consider career opportunities in the agriculture, food and fiber industry.

In addition to the events in Washington, DC on March 20, the ACA will once again feature the Ag Day Essay Contest. The winning essay will be presented on National Ag Day.
