It’s Agriculture Day at the Oklahoma Capitol! At the event, Farm Director KC Sheperd visited with legislators, ag industry leaders, and more. One of the individuals Sheperd talked with at the Capitol was Representative Dell Kerbs, who represents Oklahoma’s 26th district.
“Ag Day is such a great time to see what the industry has, anything new, to reminisce, and to visit with old friends,” Kerbs said.
In the Capitol rotunda, Kerbs said 39 booths represented agricultural groups from across the state, Made in Oklahoma products, and more.
“Ag is everywhere, every day, all the time,” Kerbs said. “We live it, and we breathe it. Let’s just enjoy it. Today at the Capitol, that is what we are doing here at Ag Day.”
Kerbs also discussed how the event is beneficial for educating legislators and other individuals about agriculture who may not have an agricultural background.
“It is very important to have this day of recognition here at the Capitol on Ag Day so those folks remember, ‘Hey, I am part of agriculture too,’” Kerbs said.
