Description
New location this month: Armory Event Center in Moorhead
Agriculture and Energy are defining and essential sectors in Minnesota and North Dakota. This session of Eggs & Issues will cover the recent history and trends of ag and energy, how the sectors and associated industries advance together and depend on one another, and what lies ahead in the coming months and years. Our speakers and panelists will also be unpacking each industry, how foreign conflict has or has not affected our region, economic drivers, new and innovative efforts, and what activities and initiatives will need to launch, continue, or evolve if we are to remain a healthy and powerful region. Several fundamental factors tie ag and energy together; join us as we take a look behind the curtain and discuss how to advance and strengthen our region, and overcome emerging challenges together.
