We were thrilled to introduce Meet the Expert, CAST’s newest monthly webinar series designed to connect our members with the leading voices in agriculture. Each session features accomplished professionals who share their career experiences, insights, and expertise, providing a unique opportunity for learning and engagement.

Our inaugural session took place on September 18 at 1 PM CST and featured Dr. Marty Matlock, a distinguished professor in the Biological and Agricultural Engineering Department at the University of Arkansas – Fayetteville. Dr. Matlock is a renowned leader in sustainability science with an impressive career that includes serving as Senior Advisor to the Secretary of Agriculture at the USDA and as Executive Director of the University of Arkansas Resiliency Center. He has also been elected to the Board of Agriculture and Natural Sciences of the National Academy of Science, Engineering, and Medicine and has earned numerous national and international awards for his contributions to the field.

During this FREE webinar, Dr. Matlock presented his extensive work in sustainability, followed by a live interactive Q&A session, giving attendees the chance to ask questions and gain insights directly from a leading expert in the field.
