My name is Owen Nelson. I have a small farm near Vegreville. I have experience in the agriculture industry, I have my Bachelor of Science in agriculture, and I have worked in a number of different facets. I have business consulting experience in the U.S. and Australia, and I've also been fortunate to have been involved with young farmers organizations, such as the Canadian Young Farmers Forum and Rock the Farm, which is hosted by the Future Agriculture Business Builders in Alberta.
I feel that it is very fortunate that we live in a country that asks our young farmers what they think about agriculture. I really value this opportunity and hope that something like this continues.
