#agchat Action Items

This Sucks


A lot of people offered to speak with me or give me tours after Tuesday's Jan 12 #agchat on Twitter.

Capturing them here for follow up:



@JeffFowle I would enjoy discussing your thoughts on pasture vs. non-pasture & AB use at another time. #agchat


@JeffFowle: Ahh. So you think "we" are defensive? Perhaps I now understand your earlier statement. Will connect w/ you later.

@Farm2U: please connect with us ~RLD

@NateJaeger < National Cattlemen's Beef Association >: good synopsis of last nights #agchat how can we make it better for folks like you? #profood

@follownathan Let me know when you arew willing to discuss this via video chat. I am always looking for passion #agchat #profood

@follownathan If you want to share your opinions here: http://bit.ly/8qBxC0 let me know ... #profood #agchat
