Results from the October 2020 Farm Journal Story Lead Contest

 

In May, the eXtension Foundation launched a monthly story lead contest in partnership with Farm Journal in the Farm Journal Monthly Story Lead Contest group here in Connect Extension. Monthly winners, along with their Extension Directors and Administrators, have the chance to work with Farm Journal to further develop their story and have it published in Farm Journal media. The topic area for the October 2020 contest was about Farmer Stress and Mental Health. We'd like to thank everyone that submitted a story lead for October 2020!

@Susan Harris, Educator - Rural Health, Wellness, and Safety, Nebraska Extension submitted the winning story lead: Communicating with Farmers Under Stress.

Congrats to Susan and Nebraska Extension! We look forward to seeing the story published in Farm Journal.
