Two of the 2011 Distinguished Alumnus in Agricultural Sciences and Natural Resources recipients that were honored by Oklahoma State University have been key contributors to the Oklahoma and US beef cattle industry.
Terry Forst and Scott Dewald (pictured here) were honored in separate receptions on Friday during the homecoming celebration on campus at Oklahoma State Unversity.
Forst earned her Bachelor of Science degree in animal science from Oklahoma State University in 1976, embarking on a career that would see her earn many honors, including being named the 2007 recipient of the OSU Department of Animal Science Master Breeder Award. The past two years, Terry has served as the President of the Oklahoma Cattlemen's Association- she wrapped up those duties just this past July.
Dewald, a native of Fargo and current resident of Dover, earned his Bachelor of Science degree in agricultural communications from Oklahoma State University in 1985. He has served the Oklahoma and US Cattle Industry well as the Executive Director of the Oklahoma Cattlemen's Association.
We talked with Dewald about his recognition- you can hear that conversation with Scott Dewald by clicking on the LISTEN BAR below- and after we talked with him about this honor-we also discussed the impact of the drought on the cattle producers he represents across Oklahoma- and where we stand now when it comes to culling and feed availability as we head for wintertime.
We have pictures from all three Receptions held on Friday on the campus of OSU for Schieber, Scott Dewald and Terry Forst. Click here for our Flickr set of pictures of these events honoring these Alums of Distinction.
