105 - County Agent: Past, Present, and What's the Future Look Like?

from The Business of Agriculture Podcast · host Damian Mason

105 years ago the Smith-Lever Act created the Cooperative Extension Service. The county Agent's role was to extend information and education from each of his or her state's land-grant university. If you grew up in Agriculture, you probably are familiar with the concept of the county Ag agent. But a lot has changed in the Business of Agriculture in the last century. How will the county agent remain relevant? Three county agents join me to discuss just that. Henry Dorough with Auburn University, Paula Burke with University of Georgia, and Stan Moore with Michigan State. Pull up a chair, you'll learn a lot about the history of the U.S. and the history of Agriculture.
