The Relevance of Extension Education in the 21st Century

Abstract: It was a humbling and unexpected surprise when I was notified of my selection for a Lifetime Achievement Award from the Southern Agricultural Economics Association (SAEA). My colleagues continually ride me about moving into administration and losing touch with “the real world.“ Given my eight years in a series of administrative positions, they may be partly right. Fortunately, my economics and business training hold me in good stead when addressing the issues that face the Texas AgriLife Extension Service. I want to thank the colleagues who nominated me and the Association for granting me this honor. It is greatly appreciated.
