One truck after another drove up the sloped driveway of the FiberMax Discovery Center on Tuesday morning as they headed to celebrate the region's top industry: agriculture. Hundreds gathered inside the facility that was lined with antique tractors and overlooked Lubbock's skyline on National Ag. Day to attend the Lubbock Chamber of Commerce's Salute to Ag. Luncheon. Every organization from Sorghum Checkoff and Plains Cotton Growers to about a dozen faculty from Texas Tech and several farmers and ranchers sat in the audience, there to recognize the important role this industry has within our city.
