TATT_GFR_VerticalEven if you are unable to attend the Global Farmer Roundtable discussions next week in Des Moines, you can still participate.

The Truth About Trade and Technology (TATT) event includes 20 farmers from various backgrounds and cultures who are invited to gather and discuss agricultural trade and technology access issues, and then continue to be part of a global network of producers. TATT has developed several social media channels to allow other farmers to join in the conversation.

Twitter – you can use the hashtag #TATTGFR to see a live feed of the roundtable discussions from TATT Twitter, ask your own questions and provide your personal input

Provide your input for the Roundtable opening session on Tuesday October 15 from 3:00 to 5:30 pm central. The question is “As a farmer, what are the key challenges you face in your farming operation today? How can farmers advocate effectively for solutions?”

The Roundtable leads into the 2013 World Food Prize and Borlaug Dialogue events (@worldfoodprize) which we will also be covering, thanks to the support of Elanco, using the hashtag #BorlaugDialogue.
