Hello I was wondering if anyone could help me update this page with correct information, a lot of it is dated and old. For instance, Bob Stallman and Randy Krotz are no longer with the organization but listed as key people. The revenue it is showing is from 2011. Essentially it looks like this whole article is referencing items from 2011. The organization has since switched focus to sustainability and is inclusive of all types of agriculture.

Here is an article in which the new CEO discusses sustainability: https://www.dtnpf.com/agriculture/web/ag/news/world-policy/article/2018/10/18/cast-award-winner-highlights-ag

Here is another article in which the new CEO Erin Fitzgerald discusses the organizations new focus on sustainability: https://www.foodnavigator-usa.com/Article/2018/10/12/Soup-To-Nuts-Podcast-Farmers-ranchers-and-brands-must-cooperate-to-address-climate-change#

Interview with new CEO in which she discusses the organization pivot and change of direction: https://www.agriculture.com/news/business/usfra-version-20-starts-now

From what i understand "Origin and aims" is an odd section title and on most pages it would just be "History", can that be changed?

Many items in the "Activities" section should be moved into the newly made "History" section as that info is extremely old
