A New Paige: in Agriculture: Youth, Advocacy, and the Power of 4-H

In this episode of Modern Farming, we sit down with Paige Cruse, a proud seventh-generation cattle rancher from South Florida who’s making big waves as a youth ag leader, storyteller, and advocate for American agriculture.

As a Florida FFA Star Farmer Finalist, Agricultural Communications SAE Finalist, and Extemporaneous Public Speaking State Champion and National Reserve Champion, Paige shares how she’s spent the last six years using her voice—and her platform—to stand up for the people who feed us all.

We talk about:

• Paige’s early journey in 4-H and how it shaped her commitment to agriculture

• Her experiences in FFA and the impact of ag education in and out of the classroom

• Why she started FrontPaigeAg.com and what drives her to speak up for producers

• How writing for AgDaily helps her educate consumers and build trust in U.S. food systems

• Her belief that boots-on-the-ground agriculture is essential to national food security

• Plans for the future—and how she’s continuing to tell ag’s story


Paige reminds us that agriculture is more than a lifestyle—it’s a legacy. Tune in to hear how one high school senior is already making a nationwide impact through words, action, and heart.
