As you know, recognizing and celebrating agriculture is an important commitment we should all make. Far too few Americans truly understand the role of agriculture in their everyday lives and that lack of awareness creates many challenges for our industry.

That’s why the Agriculture Council of America (ACA) has developed the Ag Day Planning Guide, the annual Ag Day Poster and the Ag Fact Cards, to help concerned organizations and individuals like you make the most of your Ag Day event, and in doing so, improve the understanding about agriculture nationwide.

If you are planning to host an Ag Day Event and would like some helpful ideas, visit the Ag Day web site at www.agday.org or if you would like to order Ag Day Materials, visit, http://payment.nama.org/agdayorder.htm or call the Agriculture Council of America at 913-491-1895 to order.

Join the Agriculture Council of America and NAMA in celebrating National Ag Week, March 16-22 and National Ag Day, March 20, 2008! Good luck in your celebrations!
