Episode 069: Nebraska Extension – Investing in the Future of Research

The University of Nebraska-Lincoln, farm trials, research, agriculture, extension, extension educators, and FarmBits all have one thing in common -the Nebraska Extension program. This week, hosts Kelsey Swantek and Taylor Cross sit down with Laura Thompson, Digital Ag Extension Educator, and Taylor Lexow, Nebraska On-Farm Research Network Coordinator, to the FarmBits Podcast to kick off the Summer Series focusing on research taking place at the University through Nebraska Extension and it's On-Farm Research Network. We can't think of a better way to start this season off than with these two fantastic project coordinators and educators. With this episode, we hope you learn more about Nebraska Extension and what it has to offer, not only to farmers and producers across the state but industry leaders across the United States and other countries where you might be listening from.
