The AAEA Trust Appreciation Clubs
The AAEA Trust offers a unique avenue to honor outstanding agricultural economists. By establishing an AAEA Trust Appreciation Club, friends and colleagues of an individual contribute to the AAEA Trust in the honoree's name, recognizing that individual's contribution, and supporting the future of the profession through the Trust's activities.
The list of individuals honored with the creation of an AAEA Appreciation Club is a list of the "greats" in the agricultural economics profession. These individuals remind current professionals of the extraordinary heritage of the profession and the unique position agricultural economics has in history.
More than 25 individuals have been recognized through the AAEA Trust. To learn more about their part in shaping the profession, click on the names below.
