I think one of the biggest issues in Agriculture and the internet and technology as a whole is being able to get the information to the public. I think the internet has helped a bunch since agriculture’s introduction to it. Before I don’t think the public really knew much about agriculture at all, it was what they heard from the farmer or learned on their own. Many people I don’t think realized how important it is to be in the know about what is going on in agriculture. I mean for a person that has grown up with it my whole life I know how the price change in one thing can lead to a hike or drop in price of something else. That’s like with corn becoming such a scarce resource for ethanol and all, the price of meat and milk is probably on the rise just because the feeding of corn to animals is cutting into the amount of corn available. It’s something to think about!
