Description
Join host Kylie Schedler as she talks with UW–Madison professor and Grassland 2.0 member Randy Jackson, and graduate student Jessica Mehre, to break down the intricacies of grassland ecology and Wisconsin’s history of raising cattle. Grassland 2.0 is “a collaborative group of producers, researchers, and public and private sector folks working to develop pathways for producers to achieve increased profitability, production stability, and nutrient and water efficiency, while improving water quality, soil health, biodiversity, and climate resiliency through grassland-based agriculture.” Students, if this episode piqued your interest, consider taking Dr. Jackson’s class, Agronomy 370: Grassland Ecology.
