Below you'll find a list of all posts from September, 2006
The General Manager of Missouri Ethanol is Robin Venn. He’s currently in the process of getting his house sold in Kansas City so he can move to the Laddonia area.
I interviewed Robin after the grand opening festivities were winding down. He says that all the employees of the ethanol plant are from Missouri which he thinks is unusual but shows that central Missouri has the technical talent for a plant like his and that the plant is keeping those people near home.
I arrived at the Missouri Ethanol grand opening this morning just in time to take a quick shot of the Vanguard Squadron of Sioux Falls doing their ceremonial flyover.
I didn’t count heads but I’m guessing there were at least 600 people on hand in Laddonia, MO (population 620). The plant is expected to begin production by tomorrow.
I want to welcome Truffle Media Networks to the new media world of agribusiness. The company just announced itself and to learn more about them I interviewed one of the founders, Ned Arthur.
Syngenta has created an online media kit for reporters who want information about Agrisure corn traits. Great idea. Well done and I sure wish more companies would do this. If you just don’t have the resources to create one or don’t know where to start, then consider giving little old ZimmComm a call.
Scottie Mayfield at Mayfield Dairy Farms would love to hear from his customers so what did the company do? Start a blog.
Tomorrow I’ll be attending the grand opening of Missouri Ethanol in Laddonia, MO.
It’s time to get your matching grant app in to the American Lamb Board.
It looks like Hoosier Ag Today is really on the air now.
Since it seems like a lot of my technical problems today are related to Internet Explorer I’ve switched over to Firefox. I like it a lot better anyway. It’s been one of those days that makes you say TGIF.
I’m a little behind in my posting today due to multiple computer problems. My web hosting company is working on their issues and 2 of my computers got infected somehow eventhough I’ve got all the latest stuff to block it, including a hardware firewall. It just proves that anyone can get attacked.
So, be patient. I’m sure we’ll be back to normal soon. This is why we have backups to our backups.
