In celebration of June’s National Dairy Month, BASF Plant Science L.P. recently kicked off the NutriDense Silage Web Moo.0 Contest. Through a YouTube video, Flickr photo slideshow, blog post or 500-words or less essay, NutriDense wants to see how people in the dairy industry are using social media to support their efforts in the field, spread the word about the benefits of dairy products or help consumers better connect with dairy farmers.

The grand prize is registration, hotel and travel to the exclusive AgChat Foundation Agvocacy 2.0 Conference, slated for Aug. 30-31, 2010 in Chicago, where agriculture social media users from all industries will gather to share info, learn about new technologies, and network with agriculturalists from around the country. The conference will be limited to 50 qualified applicants, and we’re proud to help send a dairy representative to the training. In addition, second and third-place winners will receive Flip Mino Cameras.
