The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Rod Bain looks at rural emergency response, and how it differs from urban and suburban emergencies, in the Feb. 25, 2020, edition of Agriculture USA audio broadcast. Rod talks with Scott Heiberger of the National Farm Medicine Center and Kevin Zummwalt of the University of Missouri’s Fire and Rescue Training Institute about rural emergency personnel.
