Memorializing Governor Kathy Hochul to proclaim March 24, 2025, as Women in Agriculture Day in the State of New York
This is a commemorative resolution (not a bill with policy changes), requesting Governor Hochul to officially designate March 24, 2025, as "Women in Agriculture Day" in New York State. It honors the contributions of women farmers and agricultural workers, citing their role in producing food, generating $222 billion in U.S. agricultural sales (36% of total), and supporting STEM education and rural communities. The resolution directly recognizes women in agriculture across New York and the U.S., aligning with National Women in Agriculture Day and Women's History Month. It does not create new laws or funding but seeks symbolic recognition through the Governor's proclamation.
