On this month’s episode of the Ag Comm Network podcast, Pam Smith of DTN/The Progressive Farmer is my guest and we are talking dicamba. Yes, you read that right! Pam is sharing her perspective of covering this controversial topic and leads us through her coverage, how to stay objective, and what she would have done different while writing her stories. This episode is jam-packed with some pretty solid takeaways so here’s a sneak peek.

  • Dig deep for information – do your homework and research
  • Keep your boots muddy and show up
  • Stay objective by having a close team
  • Communications will always be required, no matter the format
  • If you get out and talk to people, you’ll always have something to write about.

Good stuff, am I right? You won’t truly know until you listen! And that’s not all the truth bombs that Pam shares on this episode! As we look towards spring, this episode will walk you through covering those not so easy topics that we all know will pop up. Prepare now by listening to this episode.
