The time and effort American farmers put into caring for the land makes for a story that isn’t shared often enough. A new video series from U.S. Wheat Associates aims to change that for overseas wheat buyers by focusing on how producers help feed the world while also acting as stewards of soil, water, and the environment.
USW’s “Stories of Stewardship” project goes right to the source. Five wheat farmers in five different states appear on camera from their farms to talk about their work and to assure economic security for the next generation of farmers by leaving their land in better shape than it was when they started farming it. “Consumers around the world want to know how their food is grown, and U.S. wheat is definitely a food ingredient,” says USW Vice President of Communications Steve Mercer.
Stories of Stewardship can be seen on the USW website and Facebook page.
