My Last Day at IFCA by Jean Payne

Today, March 31, is the end of IFCA's fiscal year and my last day at IFCA.  I am retiring after 23 years with this incredible Association.  I never had a job with IFCA, I had a career that I loved, working for people and companies who I was always extremely proud to represent. 
 
My passion was fueled by you, the hard-working members of the crop production supply and service industry.  You never asked for more than what was reasonable and the opportunity to operate freely, responsibly, and safely.  If I had a dollar for every time an IFCA member told me 'thank you" I could have retired years ago!
 
So, from me, thank you for the support, the honest conversations, for being a proactive industry, and for allowing me to speak for you, help you, and have fun doing it. I wish you all continued success, profitability, health and happiness.  
 
Warmly and sincerely, 
 
Jean Payne
