Student Affiliate Division is busy at the meeting
By Jessica Schmitt
The ADSA Annual Meeting is underway and the student affiliate division (SAD) is excited to be back after two years of virtual meetings. Students from universities from across the nation are meeting face-to-face for a variety of activities and competitions.
The conference kicked off on Saturday afternoon as students ventured to the Kansas City Zoo to engage in a fun networking opportunity. Sunday morning started with the first business meeting and quiz bowl to test their dairy knowledge. In the coming days, students will participate in yearbook, poster, scrapbook, and research presentation competitions. In the meantime, they will enjoy a career roundtable luncheon, the activities symposium, and an interview workshop held by Dairy Management, Inc. The student-specific events will end on Tuesday with the SAD Awards Luncheon. At that time, all contest and election results will be announced.

Farm Bill Policy Priorities and more
The 2023 USDA budget and the coming Farm Bill have major impacts on priorities areas for research in the coming years and the funding that will be available to do the work.
ADSA is seeking input on priority areas for the Farm Bill, funding for science, climate change and the future workforce. The FASS Science Policy Committee (SPC) is hosting a session at the ADSA Annual meeting titled “Farm Bill and Science Policy Discussion with USDA NIFA.” It will be held from 8:00 to 9:00 am on Wednesday June 22 in room CC 2201.
Deb Hamernik, PhD, Deputy Director, Institute of Food Production & Sustainability (IFPS) for NIFA will be at our session to provide updates on NIFA. Members of the FASS SPC will provide an overview of the committee and its activities, updates on the current status of the Farm Bill and FY23 budget and seek your input on policy priorities for ADSA and FASS to pursue.
If you can’t make this session, stop by the FASS Booth (#315) and share your policy priorities during the meeting. What areas of research can have the greatest impact for producers and consumers in the short and long term?
