2.18.20 A new generation of leadership is bubbling to the surface of Eastern Washington’s agricultural landscape, personified by Lauren Port, manager of the Washington State Crop Improvement Association. In episode 165 entitled: “Setting Standards, Breaking Barriers at Today’s WSCIA”, listen in as Port describes her path from growing up on the West side of the state to helming a crucial organization in Washington’s grain chain. In addition to addressing services the WSCIA provides that help promote Washington’s sterling wheat reputation, Port talks about the influx of women into agriculture taking leadership positions at once male-dominated companies and organizations.
