Mission Statement for Class XI of the Agricultural Leadership Program
Hawaii has always been a unique place of wonderful opportunities and difficult challenges.
Influenced by the current climate of Hawaii’s agricultural environment, Class XI of agricultural
leaders has committed to the sustainable stewardship of our agricultural sector and communities.
This mission was drawn from specific behaviors chosen by the Class. We agreed to:
- Promote food and energy self-sufficiency for Hawaii;
- Promote agricultural practices that enhance natural resources for future generations
through sustainable stewardship;
- Seek strategies that will achieve economic viability for sustainable agriculture;
- Promote cooperation and active involvement within the agricultural sector and all
sectors to effect positive change;
- Educate non-agricultural elements of the community to actively support the agricultural
sector;
- Encourage consumers to purchase local produce;
- Empower communities to grow their own food.
