Pat Westhoff

@BenBrownMU @Mizzou Thanks, Ben!

Made it back to campus for a brief moment to celebrate a true Agricultural living legend - Dr. Pat Westhoff. @Mizzou is a better place because Pat Westhoff unselfishly did most of the work himself and pushed the rest of us to think broader. Enjoy retirement Pat!

I’m very pleased that USDA chief economist Seth Meyer will take on the leadership role with @FAPRI_MU in January. I can retire with confidence that the team is in good hands. cafnr.missouri.edu/stories/meyer-…
