 USA Rice Federation is deeply saddened by the sudden passing of Stewart Doan, 52, yesterday in Little Rock. Stewart was senior editor for Agri-Pulse and was well known and highly respected by the U.S. rice industry. He served as a moderator of the USA Rice Outlook Conference for many years.
A Kentucky native, Stewart had more than 30 years of agricultural news experience. He was a past president of the National Association of Farm Broadcasting, which named him its national Farm Broadcaster of the Year in 2006. His dedication and professionalism are highlighted in a statement from Agri-Pulse.
"Stewart was a wonderful person and a great friend of the U.S. rice industry," USA Rice Federation President and CEO Betsy Ward said. "He will be greatly missed. Our thoughts and prayers are with Stewart's wife, Leslie, and their two daughters."
No details on service or memorial arrangements were available at press time, but we will provide more information when available.
