Commodity Classic, America’s largest farmer-led, farmer-focused agricultural and educational experience, is currently underway in Denver, Colorado.
The 2025 show, entitled “Elevating Excellence in Agriculture,” featured Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins, who delivered her remarks as the event got underway.
