Universities, technical colleges and agribusinesses are at the Minnesota FFA Convention recruiting FFA members. Adam Ulbrecht, who is with AgCountry Farm Credit Services, says these young people are enthusiastic about the future. “I just had a conversation with a very well-informed students who was talking about interest rates, the economy and what the Fed is doing and that’s fun to see someone that young and that engaged.” The Career Connections is linking ag companies with their future employees. “Everybody knows there is a giant shortage of workers so it’s good to get in front of these kids and plant the seed now.”
