This week's episode's discussion is heavily focused on current issues in the livestock world, beyond beef and pork (poultry and sheep are covered in recent Agweek stories). We also give an update on planting progress after last week's dismal report. Our guest this week is Sean Brotherson from North Dakota State University in Fargo, ND where he's a professor and Extension Family Science Specialist. Sean is a mental health expert who has a strong agriculture background, just in time for Mental Health Month in May.
