USAgNet - 12/06/2018

The General Session at Commodity Classic is one of the most highly-rated experiences during the three-day farmer-driven event--and the 2019 version promises to be as well. The 2019 Commodity Classic will be held Thursday, Feb. 28 through Saturday, Mar. 2 in Orlando, Fla.

Keynote speaker for Friday's General Session will be Christine Cashen, known worldwide for her ability to entertain and energize audiences. Cashen will deliver a fast-paced, hilarious program on handling conflict and reducing stress--as well as tips on life, love, work and happiness. U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Sonny Perdue has also been invited to speak.

The session will also include the nation's commodity association leaders who will discuss the hottest issues facing the nation's corn, soybean, wheat and sorghum producers. Additionally, the Association of Equipment Manufacturers will provide an update on their industry.

"The General Session is where the true spirit of Commodity Classic comes through," said Wade Cowan, a Texas soybean farmer and co-chair of the 2019 Commodity Classic. "There is a strong sense of common purpose with a combination of inspiration, information and insight. You're sure to leave the General Session with a smile on your face and your spirits soaring!"

Established in 1996, Commodity Classic is America's largest farmer-led, farmer-focused agricultural and educational experience. Commodity Classic is unlike any other agriculture event, featuring a robust schedule of educational sessions, a huge trade show featuring the latest technology, equipment and innovation, top-notch entertainment, inspiring speakers and the opportunity to network with thousands of farmers from across the nation.
