It's hard not to be #UMNProud of these #UMNAlumni after watching this video and seeing the Krause family's rich farming traditions and how they are helping to protect the land and feed the world youtu.be/uOm3YII28gQ #MnAg

2018 was an exciting year for the #CFANS community. This video captures a small sample of the sights and sounds from 2018 as a reminder of all our faculty, students and staff accomplished this past year and how we are #UMNDriven to do even more in 2019. #UMNProud
So #UMNProud to be a part of the @UMNPlantPath and @CFANS family. Help support our amazing students #UMNGive!

For me this has been such a fun process to be a part of as I get to listen to scientists talk about their craft and how they express creativity throughout the scientific research process #scicomm

Some of Norman Borlaug’s final words were “take it to the farmer.” I feel so fortunate to be working at his alma matter helping to do that by bringing research-based info to people and help bring others closer to science and agriculture #UMNAlumni #WorldFoodDay2018

A good day to lock myself in a room with coffee and write some stories about how students get interested in science and plant pathology

Did you know the trucks that haul our sugar beets @CrystalSugarCo are tipped sideways to unload? The beets go into our wet hopper and water transports them into the factory. #BeetHarvest2018 #Sweet #MakingSugar

What I’ve learned so far submitting a research manuscript is that all those who work communicating on behalf of researchers should really go through the process. It will give you a completely different perspective of and appreciation for the work they do #scicomm #publishinglife

Spooked by talk of antibiotics in your chicken? 😱 Don't be! 😊All chicken you buy is technically “antibiotic free” – federal rules require that if any antibiotics are used, they must have cleared the animals’ systems before they can leave the farm. chickencheck.in/blog/why-chi…
Did you know that 🍗 chicken is the #1 protein consumed in the US? Learn more about the business of chicken here: chickencheck.in/infographics… #NationalChickenMonth

Admittedly a little bit shocking to see how healthcare lags behind other industries in terms of CSR and sustainability reporting jamanetwork.com/journals/jam…

I'm not educated enough on this topic, nor do I have first hand experience. I would love to get some #MNFarmers thoughts on this wired.com/story/john-deere-f… #MNAg #farming

Plus it's a bit weird coming full circle to realize creating this video was what got me interested in agricultural communications way back when youtube.com/watch?v=aUQu7SCe…
