Mar. 16, 2023 Source: National Association of Farm Broadcasting (NAFB) Dan Glickman, former U.S. Agriculture Secretary, recently shared his thoughts on the 2023 NAFB Foundation Farm Broadcasters & Friends Journey to Egypt & Israel. To watch a video of Sec'y Glickman talk about the tour click here. Trip dates are set for June 10-25, 2023. Plans include tours of farms, agribusinesses, and interactions with U.S. companies and organizations doing business in both countries. We are planning visits with the Israeli Minister of Agriculture, Ambassador Tom Nides, the Volcani Institute, the Binational Agriculture Research initiative (BARD), and other groups/individuals in both countries. The cost of the trip is $6,500 per person (double occupancy) plus airfare. The NAFB Foundation has offered continuing education grants of $2,000/each for up to ten NAFB Broadcast Council members who make the trip. To facilitate the process of securing travel arrangements, setting up meetings with officials, and arranging stops along the route, we need your help and cooperation. If you plan to be part of NAFB's 2023 Farm Broadcasters and Friends Journey to Israel, please let me know by close of business, Friday, March 31, 2023, as we anticipate a required deposit in the very near future. Refund criteria and trip insurance will be offered; full payment will be required prior to the trip. To join us, you will need a passport valid through March 2024 with at least four (4) blank pages. No immunizations are necessary. For additional information click here. Questions? Contact NAFB Executive Director Tom Brand at phone (816) 431-4032, x103. Tweet |
