This month, Tim had the pleasure of interviewing Dr. Temple Grandin. Join him as he gleans from her years of wisdom and experience.

Here in Part One, she discusses animal handling and the scoring system created to improve those methods, as well as the understanding of an animal's emotional makeup which helps to explain behavior, particularly in cattle.

In Part Two, Dr. Grandin shares about her new book, Visual Thinking, briefly describing the different types of thinking, their strengths, and how visual thinking is so crucial yet often overlooked or dismissed. So, sit back and enjoy this two-part series.

The Missouri Agricultural Experiment Station (MOAES) extends CAFNR research to nearly 14,000 acres across the state to meet regional research and demonstration needs of agricultural producers and natural resource managers. MOAES has a storied history of major impacts in advancing science in agriculture, food and natural resources — locally, nationally and globally. These CAFNR laboratories provide research faculty with a wide variety of real-world conditions to test and develop strategies for agricultural production based on the geographical and climatic differences of our diverse state.
