U.S. Ambassador to Poland, Victor Ashe, presented a lifetime achievement award from the American Embassy and the U.S. Department of Agriculture to Professor Franciszek Tomczak during a ceremony at the Ambassador’s residence on March 16. The award acknowledges Prof. Tomczak’s contributions to global agriculture and the understanding of the United States in Poland. Ambassador Ashe noted that “Tomczak taught a generation of Polish agriculturalists about the market economy and his life shows us how important it is to relate the truth as we see it, no matter the circumstances.”
