FDACS seeks state Agriculture Hall of Fame nominations

FDACS seeks state Agriculture Hall of Fame nominations    The Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services has put out a call for nominations for the 2008 Florida Agricultural Hall of Fame.
   Anyone can submit a nomination for the award, which goes to 'pioneers and leaders' contributing to Florida agriculture, according to FDACS Commissioner Charles H. Bronson. Previous winners have included inductees from many walks of life, including agricultural teachers, researchers, government officials, and, of course, farmers and ranchers.
   Nominations forms are available at https://www.flaghalloffame.com and can be submitted through Sept. 1. Winners will be selected by an independent panel of judges and will be announced later this year.
