During the 2020 pandemic it became increasingly difficult to host meetings with the social distancing guidelines in place. The Clinton/Cumberland Cattleman’s Association held a virtual meeting with producers attending the meeting via zoom from their own home locations. UK Extension Specialist Dr. Kenny Burdine was the guest speaker also attending via zoom. Participants were able to engage in learning about current cattle market trends and projections during the pandemic from the safety of their own homes. Although reliable internet service is in our area is generally a problem, the meeting was conducted with very few technical issues. Around 25 Producers from both Clinton and Cumberland Counties were able to connect and learn from the UK Specialist.
