Ag breakfast to focus on social media uses

Facebook, Twitter, and countless other social media outlets are proven methods for communication – and
their growth continues at a rapid pace.
The monthly Northwest Ohio Ag-Business Breakfast Forum will host Dan Toland of the Ohio Farm Bureau
Federation to present "Social Media in Agriculture," Oct. 20 from 7:30 to 9 a.m.
Consumers regularly turn to the Internet as a trusted source of information to learn more about how and
where their food is produced. Agribusiness professionals have taken note with many now utilizing social
media to enhance their business, as well as strengthen relationships with existing customers.
The program begins at 8 a.m. with informal networking prior, hosted by the Center for Innovative Food
Technology at the Agricultural Incubator Foundation, 13737 Middeton Pike, (Ohio 582, near Haskins).
This presentation will share how and why social media has become a preferred communications tool and what
you can do to make productive use of it on your farm, agribusiness, and for the overall good of the
agriculture industry (or any other business/organization).
The cost is just $10 per person (cash or check at the door) which includes an all-you-can-eat breakfast
and great informal networking opportunities.
