2025 Theme is Here!

Typically, Agricenter educates over 10,000 students each year about the importance of agriculture. We are looking forward to another great opportunity in 2025 to have our Agricenter Ag Day Celebration and award our winners for the Art Contest.
The theme for 2025 is “Agriculture: Together We Grow” This is an opportunity for students to learn about Agriculture as a leading industry and how it can impact our lives. Students can think about how everyone plays a part in making agriculture strong—farmers, communities, businesses, and consumers. It reminds us that by working together, we can help feed and support people all over the world. Whether it’s using new technology, taking care of the environment, or sharing knowledge, we can all help grow a better future. This theme shows how teamwork and unity are essential to making agriculture thrive and succeed. Have the students consider “How has agriculture impacted their lives and how it can in the future.” Some topics to discuss with the students to help with ideas about the theme are how corn and soybeans are used to fuel our cars, fresh fruits and vegetables power our bodies, and technology such as drones are advancing agriculture. Art entries are due to Agricenter International by close of business March 7, 2025. There are cash prizes for both winning students and TEACHERS of 1st place winning students.
