MoKan NAMA members met up for a fun and informational luncheon at the Cashew on Grand in Downtown Kansas City.  NAMA members enjoyed a catered lunch and an interesting presentation given by J.J. Jones, marketing and trade director at the Kansas Department of Agriculture.  J.J. opened MoKan members’ eyes to the growing global competitive market for agriculture, and offered insightful examples from his international travels, working on behalf of the Kansas Department of Agriculture.  J.J. not only works to promote Kansas agriculture exports, but to also foster relationships, particularly in the cattle industry, with emerging markets.  J.J. has recently been working with a young Russian ranching operation with more than 300,000 mother cows.
