Governor Noem is on the lookout for nominees for the prestigious 2024 South Dakota Governor’s Ag Ambassador Award. This honor is all about celebrating folks or groups who've made a big splash in boosting the state's farming and ranching scene.
If you know someone or an organization that's all about pushing agriculture forward in South Dakota, showing top-notch leadership, and respecting others, you should throw their hat in the ring! The deadline for getting your nominations in is March 1, 2024.
You can find all the details on how to nominate over at the South Dakota Department of Agriculture and Natural Resources website under the "Ag Summit" section.
The Ag Ambassador isn't just any award. It's for those who lead the way in agriculture, help the state's farming scene grow, stand up for farming and taking care of animals and the land, talk about how important South Dakota farming is to the world, and help make smart farming policies.
The big moment for the winner comes during the 2024 Governor’s Ag Summit, where they'll get a tip of the hat for their hard work and dedication to South Dakota's number one industry.
So, if you know a person or a group that fits the bill, make sure to nominate them! It's a chance to shine a spotlight on the hard workers and leaders who make South Dakota's agricultural industry thrive.
