OFI 1649: Developing As An Agricultural Journalist | FFA SAE Edition | Taylor Lacek | RTR High School FFA
Taylor Lacek is the 2o22 Minnesota State Star Farmer and a second semester student at South Dakota State University studying Agriculture Business & Communications with a newly added minor in journalism. She has a passion for telling agriculture's story, and has her sights set on being a column writer in agriculture. Taylor's grandfather got the family involved in raising show cattle generations ago, and Taylor has continued that onward. Today, Taylor keeps abreast of the latest technology and methods in cattle breeding, employing embryo transfer and even looking into cloning to develop the genetics in her herd. Taylor taught me about a method of dealing with calves that are not getting going after birth during the interview called the "Madigan Squeeze". It was clear that she is constantly consuming information on the industry that she is passionate for, and it is this consumption that will turn her into a great purveyor of agricultural information.
