@VoteDaza2024 @KamalaHarris Hope you and @KamalaHarris will agree to your statement… “America deserves to hear everything, unfiltered, not just the bits his (HER) handlers approve.”

[Vinton Smith @OneCowAtaTime]

@KamalaHarris @KamalaHarris… many of us would love to hear more from you on your policies! We hope you will speak into a live mic during more interviews with many news networks and reporters! If you can’t do that, how can the American people trust you as our president?

Whole Milk for Healthy Kids — H.R. 1147 — passed out of the House 330 to 99! A bipartisan resounding affirmation to allow the nutritious and delicious whole milk option for kids at school! Thank you to the bill’s author and champion @CongressmanGT !!

Enjoying a soda this Sunday afternoon, hoping English to Amharic Google Translation is working well for resources I’m creating. @CatholicRelief Services will validate it before using it with dairy farmers in Ethiopia through the Farmer-to-Farmer Program. #F2F

[Vinton Smith @OneCowAtaTime]

Water is essential for dairy cows to be healthy and produce more milk. More water availability was my first suggestion during my @CatholicRelief Services #F2F project in Ethiopia. Cows telling us they want more water and dairy farmer Yared Abebe finding a way to make it happen!

[Vinton Smith @OneCowAtaTime]

Demonstrated TMR feeding to these cows and they love it! Increased feed intake, better health for them will lead to more milk and better health for he people of @ziway, Ethiopia @CatholicRelief #F2F

[Vinton Smith @OneCowAtaTime]

Met with two inspirational leaders from Land O'Lakes Venture37, a non-profit arm of @LandOLakesInc doing amazing development work with farmers! Excited to see alignment with @Elanco's focus on #FoodSecurity! Thank you Getnet Assefa & Zelalem Yilma Kidane! #F2F, @CatholicRelief

Addis Ababa, Ethiopia with 5.4 Million people and growing by millions more! Will they have enough to eat? Yes, they can but it won’t be easy. Read more: https://t.co/CoI1yVcPbd

13 1/2 hours later I’ve arrived at Addis Ababa Bole International Airport. I’ll be in Addis for one day before going to Ziway/Batu where I’ll be working for nearly 2 weeks.

Departure time has arrived! Looking forward to training #Dairy #Farmers in Ethiopia so they can improve #FoodSecurity for their families, neighbors and so many more! Excited for this Farmer-to-Farmer #F2F with @CatholicRelief!
