The Kansas Certified Crop Advisor (CCA) board recently recognized 61 members for their 20, 15, 10 and 5-year anniversaries as a board certified CCA (Certified Crop Advisor). Among those recognized were MKC Field Marketers, Kevin Snyder and Brent Floerke. Snyder was recognized for five years and Floerke for ten years as a CCA.

The CCA program was established in 1992 to provide a benchmark for practicing agronomy professionals in the United States and Canada. The Kansas CCA is a professional certificate for agronomists throughout the state.

To become a CCA, individuals must pass both a state and international test and maintain certification through continuing education.

"Kansas CCA commends Kevin and Brent for their continued commitment to professionalism," said Steve Peterson, Kansas CCA Board Chairman. "Agriculture is changing too rapidly to not have the best experts (such as these two) in their field."
