<h3>Closing Keynote</h3>From Dirt to Dollars – The next generation of sustainable farmingEvan Shout, Maverick Ag 

“Agriculture is the most healthy, the most useful, and the most noble employment of man” – George Washington

Sustainability has become the new “buzzword” for agriculture, yet nobody knows what this word defines. As primary producers we are the original stewards of the land and for us to not treat it with respect would be harming our own future. But what happens when there are differing definitions of sustainability? 

From dirt to dollars identifies how as primary producers we have already taken steps to become sustainable in all aspects of our operation. Not just environmentally, but also economically, rurally, and as an industry. Are we ready to tell our story?
