Finishing up with one of the last #Drone flights of 2022. This time at Rogers Memorial Farms looking for different cover crops varieties and mixes growth and vigor indicators. Good to be in the field before it gets cold! #NebExtension #CoverCrops

Nebraskans describe the alarming injury rates from unrelenting work speeds in large-scale meat & poultry plants – as well as harm to farmers and food safety. This is a decades-long issue. Our shared fight for #workersafety must continue. (1/2) 📰⬇️
This summer, the Journal Star interviewed workers from three different Nebraska meatpacking plants. They voiced longstanding concerns about frequent injuries and hazardous working conditions, discrimination and harassment. journalstar.com/news/local/m…

Happy #FoodJusticeFriday! We are celebrating the release of our national survey. These numbers tell the stories of #youngfarmers and these policy recommendations tells us how to imagine a world where they are supportive and can succeed! #AgTwitter #Agriculture – at Washington, DC
The numbers are in! Over 10,000 of you took our largest National Young Farmer Survey to date, and told us about the challenges you face and opportunities on your farms. Today, we are releasing the results and are so excited to share them with you! 🎉 #youngfarmers

COVID taught many that local/regional food supply chains are an option to purchase food — a trend increasing prior. But it’s dependent on a pipeline of new, young farmers who face barriers to entry into the field that USDA & Congress are looking to fix.

Our Otoe-Missouria friends are raising money for the trip by selling stickers, which read Hingrawi Ke (male) or Hingrawi ki (female) and translate to "we are going home." Please consider supporting this significant effort: 3/4 docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F…

Another delegation from the Otoe-Missouria Tribe will return to Lincoln Sept. 21 when Lincoln Mayor Leirion Gaylor Baird will proclaim Sept. 21 Otoe-Missouria Day to honor the lands and people without which Lincoln would not exist and as a step in the reconciliation process. 2/4

In May, the Center, the Lincoln Indian Center, and Reconciliation Rising hosted a delegation from the Otoe-Missouria Tribe of Oklahoma to initiate a new relationship of respect/collaboration between Lincoln/UNL & the tribe that ceded the land that became our city and UNL. 1/4
