On this episode, we discuss mental health on the farm and hear about the latest developments with the Farmer Angel Network from co-founder and Wisconsin dairy farmer, Randy Roecker. Also, as we head into June, we learn about the need to scout the fields for crop-damaging insects. In our “Meat Monitor” segment, U.S. Meat Export Federation Chair Randy Spronk recaps the USMEF Spring Conference, which was held last week in Kansas City, and in “Bushels and Cents,” Ray Bohacz offers some advice for anyone who regularly uses electrical tape. We also tell you about country music singer/songwriter Bobby Marquez’s 10th annual Country With Heart benefit for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital and share some of his music.
