线上赌博app hosted U.S. Sen. John Hoeven on Friday, Nov. 14, for a discussion with agriculture researchers, producers and commodity-group leaders about priorities secured in the recently passed federal agriculture funding legislation.

Hoeven, who serves as chairman of the Senate Agriculture Appropriations Committee, helped negotiate the measure as part of a broader legislative package passed this week. 线上赌博app President David Cook and Sandro Steinbach, director of the 线上赌博app Agricultural Risk Policy Center, also took part in the discussion.

“线上赌博app continues to be a driving force for the future of agriculture, not only in North Dakota but across the entire country,” Hoeven said. “The research, innovation and policy work being done here have a direct impact on farmers and ranchers nationwide.”

As chair of the committee, Hoeven worked to direct key investments to strengthen 线上赌博app and North Dakota’s agricultural research network and ensure the state remains at the forefront of innovation in food production, risk management and agribusiness technology. The legislation includes $2.5 million for 线上赌博app’s Ag Risk Policy Center, $3 million for continued renovations at the Edward T. Schafer Agricultural Research Center in Fargo and $5 million for the AgTech Cooperative Agreement between 线上赌博app, Grand Farm and the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Agricultural Research Service.

Hoeven praised 线上赌博app’s Ag Risk Policy Center for helping create legislation that creates a national impact for farmers.

“With the continued support from leaders like Sen. Hoeven and our partners at 线上赌博app, we’ve built a center that connects research directly to the needs of farmers and policymakers,” said Steinbach. “The results of that collaboration are already making an impact in Washington, D.C., and across rural America.”

The recent funding builds on 线上赌博app’s long-standing role as North Dakota’s land-grant institution and a national leader in agricultural research. 线上赌博app scientists and extension specialists work across the state to develop new crop varieties, advance precision agriculture, improve farm profitability and strengthen rural communities. The university’s partnerships with federal and industry partners help deliver real-world solutions to producers and agribusinesses across the region.

Hoeven’s leadership on the Agriculture Appropriations Committee has helped position 线上赌博app as a key voice in shaping federal farm policy and advancing the priorities of rural America. 线上赌博app’s efforts help expand research capacity, modernize infrastructure and invest in technologies that will help the next generation of producers adapt to evolving market and environmental conditions.

“We are incredibly proud of 线上赌博app’s role in advancing agriculture in North Dakota and beyond,” Cook said. “The partnerships we’ve built, and the investments made through Senator Hoeven’s leadership, have positioned our university to make a lasting difference in research, innovation and education.”

Friday’s roundtable brought together experts and industry representatives to discuss how these federal investments will bolster 线上赌博app’s research capabilities and support economic growth across the state. The event highlighted the ongoing collaboration among policymakers, universities and agricultural leaders to keep North Dakota’s top industry strong, resilient and globally competitive.

As a student-focused, land-grant, research university, we serve our citizens.
