It’s time for the NAMA Agribusiness Forum. I’ll be the NAMA blogger once again this year but don’t arrive until tomorrow.
In case you missed a recent ZimmCast with the Chairman of this year’s conference you can still find it.
It’s going to be a good program and once again overlaps with the NAFB Convention. Maybe I’ll see you there.
I’m not back to regular office hours yet. Give me another day or so. But I do have internet access so you do get a ZimmCast this week.
In this week’s program you’ll hear from Gary Truitt, Hoosier Ag Today. Gary just got started with his new venture recently and he’s got a website, radio network and has started podcasting.
I interviewed Gary at his office in Indianapolis on a recent trip and learned more about what he’s doing and what he thinks the future holds.
My nephew came up with the title for this post.
We’re at our hunting camp and will be here for a few more days until it’s time to head to Kansas City.
For those who are wondering I think this picture speaks for itself.
It’s been a great opening day out here and the weather has been beautiful.
The online world continues to grow. This time it’s Syngenta with another website. This one’s for their AgriEdge program.
I am getting ready to head to the woods as I warned you about last week. This means very light posting until next Wednesday. Almost a whole week! Whoo hoo.
If you want to learn more about what I’ll be doing please feel free to visit the Missouri Department of Conservation website.
I’ll have my camera and I hope I’ll have something to share with you over the next several days.
Looking ahead to next week, I’ll be posting from the NAMA Agribusiness Forum and the NAFB convention in Kansas City. So until soon . . .
Cyndi Young has been busy interviewing growers about their harvest progress.
“Listen to audio harvest reports and harvest progress updates from Pioneer agronomists in your local area and across the country.”
You’ll find them on the Pioneer website.
It looks like Osborn & Barr is doing more online work for its clients. At least I hope so if they’re adding so many people to the staff! I wonder if any of them are blogging. If so, let me know.
It’s never too soon to look forward to food on Thanksgiving. The folks at All Recipes have some great information for you if you have any questions. I’ll be doing some gourmet cooking at hunting camp later this week and sharpening my skills in time to whip up a holiday feast at the Zimmerman home.
It looks like Hubbard Feeds has a new website.
I finally caught up with Jim Wessing, Kondex Corporation this afternoon after our session.
Jim is the immediate past president now of the Farm Equipment Manufacturers Association. I spoke with him about what FEMA is and what benefits it offers its members. There’s a lot of work this very small staff does out of St. Louis!
Jim said that in the last year the organization has added 84 new member companies and that 31 of them had representatives here at the convention.
