The term “broadcast” has a lot of meanings these days. It could mean over the air transmission, satellite feed, internet streaming, podasting or a dial-in phone feed. That last one is what the Agriculture Council of America is doing for Ag Day.
Attention NAMA Members! Can’t make it to Washington, DC for this year’s National Ag Day celebrations? No problem, you can attend the official Ag Day luncheon right in your own office via an audio broadcast.
The audio broadcast will take place on Thursday, March 16 from 1:00 – 2:00 p.m. (EST). This year’s luncheon keynote speaker will be the Honorable Saxby Chambliss (R-GA), Chairman of the Senate Committee on Agriculture, Nutrition, and Forestry. Senator Chambliss will address the opportunities and challenges facing American agriculture. Former USDA Secretary John Block of Olssen, Frank & Weeda, and Orion Samuelson, WGN Radio/RFDTV, will serve as the Masters of Ceremony. In addition, the national winner of the Ag Day Essay Contest, “Growing Our Energy,” will be honored.
