The Wisconsin DATCP is reminding high school juniors to apply for the Wisconsin Agricultural Youth Council.
Applications will be accepted through March 31st and must be done online.
The electric application must include a brief essay and a one-minute video explaining their current involvement in agriculture and their future goals.
The goals of the council are to highlight agricultural-related careers, share resources available for farmers, provide insight into agricultural policy development, and increase networking opportunities for students.
The council meets virtually every month of the school year to listen to presentations, engage in discussions, and connect with professionals across the agriculture industry.
Members who complete their one-year term at the Wisconsin Agricultural Youth Council will receive a certificate.
The Wisconsin DATCP works to have a 15-member council with members across the state.
More information can be found at agyouthcouncil.wi.gov.
