Then National Agri-Marketing Association held it’s first ever producer panel here at the Cattle Industry Convention today. Pictured are (l-r) Jason McCann, MO, Laurie Lickely, ID, Gary Cooper, Southeast Agnet/Moderator and Kevin Kester, CA. The focus was on new communications technology.

I visited with them briefly before the session to get each of their thoughts on this subject and I think you’ll be interested to hear what they think about the importance of social networks like Twitter and Facebook. Agribusinesses will be interested to note the importance of using these channels to communicate with their farmer customers today!
