The Regional Accelerator and New Growth Engine or RANGE launched to the public today, presenting the framework for Amarillo.
RANGE plans on developing programs to address current and future challenges in the beef, dairy and crop-production industries, as Amarillo is a center of production for the nation’s beef and dairy industries.
In order to meet their goal, the organization will be training local top talent for food production industries, encouraging collaboration with businesses that tie in with agriculture production.
