The Texas AgrAbility program of the Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service is introducing a new project to benefit military veterans interested in becoming farmers and ranchers.

“In 2012, Texas AgrAbility developed Battleground to Breaking Ground: A Transformational Journey, a workshop to address four key areas of agriculture business: planning, rural business opportunities, the Texas AgrAbility program and funding sources,” said Dr. Rick Peterson, AgriLife Extension state specialist, family and community health, College Station.
