50 - Animal Agriculture, Antibiotics, Ag Infighting, And More

Jim Smith is a Technical Swine Nutritionist with Kent Feeds. He and I met a few years back when his company hired me to speak at a national sales meeting. He's also farmer, an active Ag Tweeter, and a friend of the show. We discuss the need for more animal scientists, why livestock producers can't "save their way to prosperity," and the amazing job Animal Ag is doing at cutting antibiotic usage. We also delve into the topic of Ag's propensity for internal conflict — seems we all have haters! You'll enjoy this discussion.
