Welcoming Agriculture Advocates
Mississippi State’s distinction as one of the nation’s leading universities in agriculture research brought prominent ag advocates to the Starkville campus in April. U.S. Senator and former Mississippi Agriculture Commissioner Cindy Hyde-Smith, left, and Dr. Ranveer Chandra, Microsoft Corporation Chief Technology Officer and Managing Director for Research, center, were welcomed by MSU President Dr. Mark E. Keenum and toured university agriculture-related research initiatives, including MSU’s research capabilities that could benefit Microsoft’s FarmBeats program.
