Session: Social Media in Production Agriculture


Social Media in Production Agriculture
A decade ago, it was unheard of for those in production agriculture to use social media. Today, it s more and more common to see farmers, consultants, Extension, and others in the cotton industry joining the social-media world to connect with people in ways that are the most convenient and effective for them. Attendees will have an opportunity to learn what is available and how to best use these new tools.
