Mr. Al Strohmaier has been an Ambassador with CropLife Ambassador Network for over 10 years. He is from Willoughby, Ohio. Mr. Strohmaier is a Group Publisher for Meister Media Worldwide.
Many years ago, he was attending a Quarterly Meeting for Mid America CropLife Association and found out about the CAN and decided to get involved. His influence to be an ambassador is that he would have liked to be a grade school teacher.
In presenting to students, Mr. Strohmaier said that kids need to know where their food comes from and people need a better appreciation for how big the United States is in Agriculture because almost everything they eat or wear comes from agriculture and they may at some point in the future be working in agriculture.
He feels that other agriculturalists should become an ambassador to help give balance to young kids about food production and its safety because of modern agriculture. His advice to anyone considering becoming an ambassador is the reward is ten times greater than the effort put into it and it is personally rewarding.
