"Foundations for the Future: Conversations About Oregon Agriculture" The Oregon Department of Agriculture (ODA) and OSU's College of Agricultural Sciences sponsored a two-day event in Corvallis in October 2001 for a cross-section of leaders from Oregon agriculture. Together with representatives of ODA and OSU, the group examined powerful forces that will influence the future, such as changing consumer demands, globalization, and environmental issues. Before the session concluded, participants committed to taking action on a number of matters important to the future of Oregon agriculture.
