Mission and Program Overview

Mission

Aaea serves as a forum for an open exchange of ideas among colleagues in an environment that fosters professional excellence. Tradition has kept the association strong since 1921 and its culture defines its niche - the editors, writers, photographers, and other communication professionals serving america's agribusiness professionals and rural lifestyle enthusiasts. Today, aaea's purpose stands as testament to the vision, courage, and determination of the small group of farm magazine editors who founded the organization - to provide a forum that allows professionals to share and exchange ideas, issues, and goals with their colleagues while offering opportunities for professional development.

Provide professional development in communications for members through workshops, seminars, webinars, contests, scholarship programs, and other similar tactics.
