In a world full of facts and statistics, it’s the stories that truly resonate. In this edition of our Agricult-HER series, Donna Moenning reminds us that stories create emotional connections that facts alone just can’t achieve. This is especially true in agriculture, where transparency and empathy are crucial. Moenning is now with Look East and the Center for Food Integrity and her career has also included time with Midwest Dairy, National Livestock and Meat Board and in farm radio. Moenning received the National Association of Farm Broadcasting scholarship in 1983. “It enabled me to complete my college degree. Had I not applied, I wouldn’t have completed my degree. South Dakota State was phenomenal and it led to my next job, which opened a big world to me. Farm broadcasting opens a huge world to you.” The interview is available on the RRFN YouTube channel.
