NE Fair Farm Forums

Brownfield NetworkThe folks at the Brownfield Network have been working overtime to bring great radio to the web. I guess that makes it webradio? Anyway, you can see/hear some of their latest new stuff from the Nebraska State Fair. Use this link: Brownfield Farm Forums: Nebraska State Fair Their coverage was sponsored by the Nebraska Corn Growers Association and Nebraska Corn Board.

They did live webcast farm forums such as, “Technology in the Field” with Greg Ibach, Nebraska Department of Agriculture; Steve Wiese, Nebraska Corn Growers Association, Mark Jagels, Nebraska Corn Board and area farmers using cutting edge technology to produce grain & livestock. Another one was called “Beefing Up with Ethanol,” with Galen Erickson, University of Nebraska; Jon Holzfaster, Nebraska Corn Board; and Pete McClymont, Nebraska Cattlemen Association. This one focused on the impact of alternative fuels in the livestock industry and how farmers are using ethanol by-products in their cattle operations. And finally, one on “Fueling Nebraska’s Economy: the Growing Ethanol Industry.” This roundtable discussion features expert panelists from the Nebraska Ethanol Board, the Corn Board, and a leading official on state economic development.

You can listen to all these forums by visiting links to them on their website. There’s also lots of pictures from the fair. Excellent coverage
