Texas A&M AgriLife Extension is proud to announce that U.S. Secretary of Agriculture, Rollins, will be the special invited guest at the 3rd Annual Women in Agriculture Conference, taking place September 9–10, 2025, in Fort Worth, Texas.

In her role, she is responsible for shaping and executing federal policy on food, agriculture, natural resources, rural development, and nutrition. The USDA plays a vital role in supporting the nation’s farmers and ranchers, advancing rural economies, safeguarding the food supply, and promoting sustainable farming practices. Secretary Rollins also leads efforts to strengthen agricultural trade and combat hunger both domestically and around the world.
A native of Glen Rose, Texas, Secretary Rollins brings deep personal and professional ties to the agricultural community. She grew up on her family’s farm and went on to earn a Bachelor of Science degree in Agricultural Development from Texas A&M University. Her lifelong dedication to agriculture and rural advocacy continues to inform her leadership at the national level.
