Students applied for the conference which focused on training future leaders. It is sponsored by the Alabama Farmers Federation, Alabama Farmers Agriculture Foundation, county Farmers Federations and Alabama Farm Credit (AFC).
âThis meeting helps prepare students to be future leaders, but in many cases theyâre already leaders in their school and community,â said Wiley Bailey, who helped coordinate the conference for the Federation. âItâs important to inspire young leaders and get them involved as advocates for agriculture and to encourage them to serve their communities.â
