PEARCE PARTICIPATES IN AGTRUE TOUR

PEARCE PARTICIPATES IN AGTRUE TOUR Congressman Pearce joined many of New Mexico’s elected officials on a special tour hosted by the New Mexico Farm and Livestock Bureau this week that highlighted the rich agriculture community in New Mexico. “Agriculture is a vital part of New Mexico’s history, and is likewise an important piece of our economic future. What was most impressive about the AgTrue Tour was the special attention that was given to young farmers and ranchers in our state. It is essential that we begin to mentor the millennial generation so that they are prepared to take on the issues facing New Mexico, and so that they have the tools to leave it a better place than when they found it,” Pearce said. “The agriculture community as a whole is one which is based in family and a disciplined work ethic, and it was honor as always to spend time with some of the people who contribute to this rich culture.”
