Agriculture’s national conversations came to East Campus.

Last week, Farm Journal brought the @usfarmreport College Roadshow to Nebraska, putting our students right in the middle of conversations about agriculture and giving them the opportunity to connect with agricultural leaders and media without leaving campus.

It’s one of the many ways a Nebraska education extends beyond the classroom — connecting students with the people, ideas and opportunities shaping the future of agriculture.

Take a look at a few scenes from the Roadshow in Lincoln. 🌽

More than one-third of Nebraska’s agricultural production is ultimately consumed by customers across the globe.

Jayson Beckman with UNL’s Clayton Yeutter Institute of International Trade and Finance joined @rfdtv to break down how international trade creates demand for Nebraska products, supports our agricultural economy and influences decisions on farms and ranches every day.

“It allows us to stay at home and stay connected with the people we love.”

For Reagan Choat, this reflects what makes agriculture special. He sees it as more than an industry, but a way of life rooted in family, community, and purpose. His perspective highlights how working in agriculture keeps people grounded in what matters most, building a life that values connection as much as hard work.
