Being named to a hall of fame is always a prestigious honor.
Georgia’s Agricultural Hall of Fame honors agriculture
commissioners, research scientists, agribusiness leaders and a host
of other agriculture supporters.
If you know someone worthy of being inducted into the Georgia
Agricultural Hall of Fame, now is the time to make your nomination
for the 2004 inductees. Each year the University of Georgia
College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences Alumni
Association recognizes agricultural leaders in Georgia by selecting
members of the hall of fame.
Honors Georgia ag leaders
“The Georgia Agricultural Hall of Fame pays tribute to
agricultural
leaders who have made extraordinary contributions to agriculture
and agribusiness industries in Georgia,” said Juli Fields of the
UGA CAES Alumni Association. “The program is designed to give
appropriate recognition to those who have made significant
achievements in agriculture, agribusiness industries, and the
service institutions.”
