WHO GETS THIS NEWSLETTER?

For a long time, we have distributed the Agricultural Engineering Newsletter to extension field staff—our target audience—by mailing multiple copies in an envelope to each county office. This method works well for us and we want to make sure that it works well for you.

Although many of the topics in our newsletter apply directly to production agriculture, some articles are of more general interest. For example, the articles on safety may be directed specifically to 4-H agents or others. Other articles, including some related to production agriculture, may be of more general interest and pertain to everyone. As a result, we have tried to include sufficient copies in each mailing so that each board-appointed staff person in the following categories may have a copy: County Director, Ag and Natural Resource Agent, Home Economist, and 4-H Youth Agent. Also, we would like for the AoE agents with an office in that county to receive a copy.

To help the person who distributes the newsletter in the county office, we will be inserting in each mailing a suggested distribution list, not by individual name but by position category as listed above. (Thanks to Dann Bolinger for suggesting this idea.)
