Host and American Family Farmer, Doug Stephan www.eastleighfarm.com begins with news about National Corn Week and a little history lesson about corn. Next, news about how milk has been produced in a laboratory, without a cow. Then, Doug introduces us to Rob Myers, Ph.D., the Director of the Center for Regenerative Agriculture at the University of Missouri. www.cra.missouri.edu Rob has been an adjunct faculty member with the Plant Sciences Division since 2001 and began serving as the part-time director of the MU Center for Regenerative Agriculture in early 2021. He defines “regenerative agriculture,” and explains why the term has become so mainstream in the past few years. He also offers examples of regenerative agricultural practices that Family Farmers can incorporate into their existing systems. Finally, Farmer Doug opines about the terms "El Nino" and "La Nina," and how you should take them into consideration when making this year's seed selection.
