Mid-west Farm Report - Madison

Stephanie Hoff and Heather Hunt, outreach program manager with the UW-Madison Meat Science & Animal Biologics Discovery Program, discuss what it takes to judge specialty meats.

Heather tells us how judges maintain their palates and why supporting local processors is a lifelong passion for those in the field.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
