(St. Paul, MN) — Specialized agricultural license plates are now available to Minnesotans. Minnesota F-F-A Foundation executive director Val Aarsvold says it took four legislative sessions to make it happen — but during those four years the number of people wanting to purchase an Ag specialty plate grew.
The winning design depicts a rising sun and two sets of hands, which is a nod to both 4-H and the Future Farmers of America.
One set of hands is smaller than the other, which Aarsvold says represents a difference in age and the mentoring that takes place.
The cost is 15 dollars and 50 cents for the plate itself, and a minimum annual 20-dollar contribution to be divided equally between the state F-F-A and 4-H.
