Educator Achievement Award

I know it is a pretty rough looking crowd in the picture above, but I will have to say I am very proud of the honor!

Keith McIlvain (left) and Jim Farley (right), Texas Ag Industries Association (TAIA) Board members are shown presenting me (Bob Whitney – in the middle) the 2023 TAIA “Professionals for Texas Agriculture”, Educator Achievement Award in Recognition of Outstanding Contributions to TAIA Educational Programs.

The Texas Ag Industries Association represents the hundreds of agriculture companies in Texas that work closely with all aspects of commercial agriculture.  Members meet on a regular basis to decide on issues that affect agriculture companies in Texas and to learn about new and innovative ideas within agriculture that can benefit TAIA member’s customers and clients.

I know and work with many of the members and have worked with the organization over many years. They are a great group of folks, and I am indebted to them for this recognition. Thank you!
