A Consistent Presence
Despite halting all face-to-face programming due to COVID-19, University of Missouri Extension recognizes the continued need to provide university research and knowledge to help farmers and consumers alike. Specialists are creatively transitioning current materials as well as building COVID-19-focused resources on alternative platforms. Specialists are also adapting to answer new questions that have been asked during the pandemic. Pat Miller (pictured), an agronomy specialist, said she has received numerous questions related to gardening, as consumers follow social distancing protocols and avoid the grocery store.
