THROCKMORTON – Kloey Cargill of Oklahoma City has accepted the position of Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service agriculture and natural resources agent in Throckmorton County.

“We look forward to having Kloey come aboard the District 3 team,” said Miles Dabovich, AgriLife Extension district administrator in Vernon. “Her past job experience working with people and solving problems will be a great asset to the AgriLife Extension program in Throckmorton County.

“I have always had a strong passion for agriculture,” Cargill said. “I have built my life around being an agriculture advocate, and helping others learn about our industry. I want my love for agriculture to make a lasting impact on our industry.”
Cargill said she looks forward to becoming a part of the community of Throckmorton, and “I hope to involve as many individuals as possible in the county 4-H program.”
