More young people are showing an interest in farming. The latest Census of Agriculture showed a seven percent gain in farmers under the age of 44, compared to the prior Census back in 2017, and producers under the age of 25 saw the largest gain.

While there is a greater interest, ag educators say it comes with more challenges. Texas A&M AgriLife Extension shows us how they are empowering ag teachers in the Lone Star State, while making a difference in rural communities.
