Tryg Koch named Outstanding Agricultural Leader

Montana State University

Tryg Koch, a familiar face to many in Montana’s agricultural community, was recognized by the Montana State University College of Agriculture during the annual Celebrate Ag event.

Koch is the 2024 recipient of the college’s Outstanding Agricultural Leader award. Each year ahead of Celebrate Ag, members of the agricultural community across the state nominate individuals who embody service. An awardee is then selected by a committee, including representatives from the College of Agriculture, Montana Agricultural Experiment Station and MSU Extension. Koch and his family were honored at the newly expanded Celebrate Ag week, which included 19 events from Nov. 4-9 both on and off the MSU campus.
