Minnesota ag officials want farmer input for state budget

Minnesota’s Department of Agriculture wants input from farmers as the state begins the next budget cycle.

The department is hosting two virtual input sessions Wednesday afternoon, September 7th at 2:00 pm and Thursday evening September 8th at 7:00 pm.  State ag officials say they want to engage with communities throughout Minnesota to hear ideas that reflect the diversity of the state, and input is welcome from all, especially emerging and beginning farmers who may have had little to no interaction with the state government before.
