State Senator Patty Ritchie met recently with members of the New York State Corn and Soybean Growers Association in Albany.
As Chair of the Senate Agriculture Committee, Senator Ritchie is a strong supporter of New York State’s hardworking farmers. Most recently, she unveiled her “Young Farmers NY” plan, an initiative designed to help address issues related to the advancing age of New York’s farming population as well as protect the future of family farming by encouraging more young people to consider careers in agriculture and reducing financial roadblocks to starting a new agriculture business.
