June is recognized nationally as Dairy Month.
As the month comes to an end, Russell County Agriculture Extension Agent Jonathan Oakes said while the number of dairy farms locally has decreased over the years, Russell County’s dairy farms play a key role in the community.
Oakes was a guest on Talk around Town on WJRS last week. You can listen to Talk Around Town weekdays on WJRS at around 4:15 p.m.
