Ag Conference

On 2 November 2011, TX ADT-V hosted a conference for the Agriculture experts in Ghazni Province.  Attendees included vetrinarians, agriculture extension agents, specialists in conservation, livestock, and water, and was sponsored by the Director of Agriculture, Irrigation and Livestock for Ghazni Province, Sultan Hussein.  There were more attendees than we had hoped for, and was the first time that all of the experts from the different districts have been in the same room to meet, exchange ideas, and develop plans for their districts.  The event was a huge success thanks to everyone on our TX ADT team, from our Ag Expert Team, SecFor in providing security, and the Headquarters Section.  Great job, guys!
