Agriculture Today Radio Program Thursday, July 12



Agriculture Today's Devon Stewart has an extended interview with the
Saline County farm family at the center of one of the true feel-good
stories in agriculture this year...the overwhelming success of the
home-made music video "I'm Farming and I Grow It", which suddenly
became a powerful social media message about agriculture and the farm
life: The Peterson Brothers, Greg, Nathan, and Kendal, along with
parents David and Marla and sister Laura, talk about the project and
the flood of attention it has received nationally and internationally

And for this week's horticulture feature, K-State horticultural
entomologist Raymond Cloyd goes over a broad array of insect pests
currently at work on garden vegetables and ornamental flowers, and
what gardeners should do in response

Agriculture Today is broadcast each weekday morning at 10:00 on KFRM
Radio, Clay Center (550 AM) and KLOE Radio, Goodland (730 AM), which
collectively reach 75 counties in Kansas, parts of southern Nebraska,
eastern Colorado and northern Oklahoma...the broadcast can also be
heard over the K-State Radio Network website. Also see Agriculture Today
