I'm headed to Watertown, SD to attend the South Dakota Cattlemen's Association Annual Trade Show and Convention. Yes, I'm skipping a few classes and headed to learn about the cattle industry that I love. With me, I'm taking South Dakota State University's Block and Bridle Club. We are an agriculture based organization, and we have recently established our beef interest group. This will certainly be a great way to kick off the festivities!
Even better news: there is a great lineup of speakers at the convention. Pfizer Animal Health-Dr. Jerry Stokka, South Dakota Secretary of Ag-Bill Even, South Dakota Beef Ambassador-Suzanne Swett, USDA Under Secretary Marketing and Regulatory Programs-Bruce Knight, Senator John Thune, Dr. Bill Burdett, Troy Marshall, and Lowell Mesman. Their insight is going to be interesting and educational for sure!
With industry leaders gathered, hot topics to discuss, and old friends to meet up with--it is bound to be a great time. Stay tuned for a radio show about the event tomorrow! Have a great day!
