Through on-going interaction with faculty and peers, Program participants are better prepared to assess and to deal effectively with the complicated, evolving strategic issues that influence agriculture, society, community, family and government.

Program alumni have consistently risen to leadership positions within their enterprises, agricultural and industry organizations, non-profit and community organizations, and local, state and federal governments, including the California Legislature and the United States Congress.
