Young Ladies In Agriculture Forum

The Young Ladies In Agriculture Forum invites young ladies in high school (individuals grades 8-12) and college interested in exploring future jobs in agriculture. Our goal is to bridge the gap between students interested in jobs in agriculture and professional women in agriculture.
