Farm Bureau Collegiate Chapter Established
A new Collegiate Young Farmer and Rancher Farm Bureau Chapter has recently been established at Carroll College, creating opportunities for students to connect with Montana’s agricultural industry, develop leadership skills, and prepare for careers across agriculture sectors.
The newly established student-led organization held its first meeting early last week, drawing some notable attendance and creating interest across the campus in Helena.
Carroll College CYF& R president, Reagan Long, noted the need for an agriculture specific collegiate group in Helena. “We created the Carroll College CYF& R chapter to give students an opportunity to get together, collaborate with like-minded individuals, and ultimately give the students here a voice in their agricultural community,” said Reagan. “Our proximity to the State Capitol also provides the opportunity to learn firsthand from policymakers and industry professionals while giving our members a chance to advocate for issues and explore careers within Montana agriculture.” The Young Farmers and Rancher Program of the Montana Farm Bureau provides an excellent opportunity for young farmers and ranchers, ages 1835, to actively participate in Farm Bureau programs and become leaders in the Farm Bureau organization.
