Dairy team podcast is ready to start its third season this spring
Print
EmailTake us along for the ride with a new season of our educational podcast beginning April 13.
The virtual coffee break with the Michigan State University Extension dairy team is back!
As spring begins to show itself, and soils begin to warm up, plans for the 2021 field season are also in motion. This means many farmers and dairy professionals are moving equipment, buying seeds and supplies, meeting clients, and surveying fields, etc. These additional tasks can limit the opportunity for continued development of the skills and knowledge vital for constant improvement on farms.
To meet the need for flexible and convenient educational programing, the MSU Extension dairy team launched a podcast named “The Virtual Coffee Break with the MSU Extension Dairy Team.” This educational podcast series provides ideas, new research, interesting tips and stories from invited producers, researchers, and professionals, in an easy way to consume - on your phone! Take us along for the ride with our new season beginning April 13, 2021. You can tune in to our new weekly episodes on all the major podcast apps like Apple, Spotify, Google, or listen in your browser. See our schedule so you can join us this season.
