In Ep. 82, we’ll discuss how Dustin Pendell and his colleagues at Kansas State University are preparing to launch a series of Town Hall-type seminars designed to help entrepreneurs and others to either launch new small meat processing operations or expand their existing businesses. The K-State effort is geared to help these small businesses navigate the financial and other opportunities offered by state and federal agriculture departments throughout Kansas. The program also ultimately will provide internship opportunities for K-State students in the Agricultural Department so they can gain hands-on experience once these smaller processors begin their new or expanded operations.
