Wisconsin Agriculture Youth Council

The Wisconsin Agriculture Youth Council was created in 2020 to encourage young people to engage with state government and increase their awareness of the role played in the state’s agricultural industry by the Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection. The council is comprised of 15 Wisconsin high school seniors who participate in virtual monthly sessions to hear presentations, participate in discussions and network with others from across the agricultural industry.

Agri-View is sharing articles from Wisconsin Agriculture Youth Council members, who will share highlights from their meetings as well as perspectives regarding topics discussed.
