Al Kurki talks with Ron this week on energy issues and policies related to farming.
Al grew up in northernmost Wisconsin and for 8 years worked as a logger like his father and grandfather had.
He has worked on sustainable agriculture and food systems issues since 1984, first as the ag staffer and executive director of the Montana-based Alternative Energy Resources Organization (AERO), and more recently as a farm and energy program specialist with the National Center for Appropriate Technology (NCAT).
The interview was conducted on June 12, 2017.
