Developing leadership: 2013 ASA/DUPONT YOUNG LEADERS CHOSEN

摘要

THE FUTURE OF farming will rely on strong leaders like Dave Vandewalle and Lisa Mardlin Vandewalle who have been chosen for the 2013 American Soybean Association /DuPont Young Leader Program. The Perth County couple applied to, and were selected by, aGrain Farmers of Ontario committee to represent the organization and Canada. Applications for the Young Leader program were accepted between June and August. Dave and Lisa had read about the program in a past issue of the Ontario Grain Farmer magazine and had heard a presentation from last year's participant Dave Park. Encouragement from their peers within Grain Farmers of Ontario was the final push they needed to apply for the program.
