There are actually a good number of ag journalists here at the National Biodiesel Conference this year – more than usual.

Of course, we had our good friends from AgriTalk, seen here interviewing NBB CEO Joe Jobe for Monday’s show. They did a show Tuesday also and then took off to head for Reno for the Cattlemen’s meeting.

Other farm broadcasters included Tom Steever from Brownfield Network and Dale Minyo with Ohio Ag Net.

On the print side, we had lots of hard working folks like Greg Lamp with Corn and Soybean Digest, seen here on a conference call with Diane Johnson planning the 2009 IFAJ meeting in Dallas. Yes, he is working harder than it might appear!

Others on hand were Mike Wilson with Farm Futures, our former intern Margy Fischer with Farm Journal, and an old friend of ours from the Florida days, Jerry Jackson with the Orlando Sentinel. It was great to see Jerry again. He has been covering the ag beat for the Sentinel for as long as I can remember.
