The extension specialist quoted in the release for The Farm Gate is the father of Keith Good who publishes FarmPolicy and writes for AgWired weekly on Tuesdays. I guess he saw what the boy was doing and pronounced it good.

“Agricultural decision-makers have a new place to start their day – “The farm gate,” an internet blog updated daily by University of Illinois Extension. “The farm gate is a place to go to find integrated information across a variety of disciplines, including crop and animal sciences, ag economics, ag engineering, and veterinary medicine,” explained U of I Extension marketing specialist Darrel Good. “These disciplines will be addressed as they meet, intersect and often intertwine to shape the environment in which the ag community lives and work.”

The Farm Gate blogger is actually Stu Ellis. This only makes sense!
