State of Ag

The State of Ag Report is a result of a comprehensive survey of Minnesota’s agribusiness and related industries and a series of focus groups. It reveals the perceptions and opinions on the economy and other major issues impacting businesses in the agriculture industry and places an emphasis on education, as well as talent attraction and retention. The State of Ag Report enables GreenSeam to better understand, serve, and support the workforce, businesses, organizations, and communities we call home.

The 4th Annual GreenSeam State of Ag focus groups were held in January and February 2023.  These focus groups were held by several organizations throughout the state of Minnesota, including the Minnesota State Southern Agricultural Center of Excellence.  At the same time, a survey was available to ag business leaders as well as students to widen the data collected.  The results of this survey were revealed on National Ag Day, March 21, 2023 and can be found at https://greenseam.org/stateofag/.
