The founder and CEO of the World Agricultural Forum is Leonard Guarraia. After he welcomed everyone to this year’s Forum I was able to talk with him briefly about the mission of the Forum and what he hopes gets accomplished here.

He says they want to bring together leaders from around the world for discussion, get the press to listen and understand agriculture’s role and to take action. He says they have over 400 people attending which is well over what they expected but he’s happy with that.
