"I am employed at Wells Fargo Bank. The classes I have taken through my Agribusiness major helped give me a good solid education that allowed me to develop my skills in several areas and not just in one area.

"I am working for Cargill AgHorizons in Shelton, NE in the accounting department. College has made me a better people person and has allowed me to become more diversified. An Agribusiness degree has allowed me to know and understand the grain commodity markets, the production, financial, and pricing challenges producers encounter. By knowing both the agriculture & accounting side of my job it has given me the knowledge base I need to understand the numbers I work with."
