Governor Bredesen believes agriculture will continue to play a prominent role in growing Tennessee’s economy. He understands farming is a tough, competitive business. Top agriculture priorities include:

Enhancing marketing efforts. The Governor knows we need to continually improve efforts to sell our state and its products, and that we need to encourage consumers to buy Tennessee-grown products, both at home and outside the state.

Strengthening cooperation . The Governor believes the state needs to support successful public-private partnerships through the University of Tennessee Extension and other vital initiatives.
