There was engaging dialogue and experiences shared by the 16 participants from around the world who traveled to Des Moines, Iowa. Dr. Nicholas Kalaitzandonakes, the MSMC Endowed Professor of Agribusiness Strategy and the Director of the Economics and Management of Agrobiotechnology Center (EMAC) at the University of Missouri, moderated this year.

It was a busy week full of activity again this year. It included visits to Kemin nÃ« Des Moines, the Couser Cattle Company near Nevada, dhe 2013 Ã‡mimi BotÃ«ror i Ushqimit Laureate Dr. Robb Fraley dropped by and did some Q&A with the group during the Roundtable itself.

The Global Farmer Roundtable was held again during the week of The Ã‡mimi BotÃ«ror i Ushqimit Symposium and that allowed those attending to also take part in the Borlaug Dialogue, Laureate Award Ceremony, and other side events held during the week. Gurjeet Singh Mann from India and Larva Grace from Zimbabwe, were also invited to participated as panelists in a side event during the week, “Drought and Disease Tolerance for Food Security”.

A highlight of the week was the presentation of the 2014 Kleckner Award to Ian Pigott from the United Kingdom during a reception that was co-hosted with CropLife International on October 14. A fourth generation farmer, Pigott farms only about 20 miles from the highly-populated center of London. NÃ« 2006 founded FermÃ«n e HÃ«nÃ« tÃ« DielÃ«n, a day when more that 400 farmers open their operations up to visitors across the country helping them to see, learn and better understand agriculture.

A new effort undertaken after this year’s event on Twitter is Farmers No Borders @World_Farmers where a different member of the Global Farmer Network will host for a few weeks at a time, passing the handle around the world sharing their stories and giving different perspectives. Be sure to follow!
