RSS Feeds are a digital format for delivering regularly changing web content directly to users. RSS, or ‘Really Simple Syndication’, is a XML-based file format used by website authors to summarize website content into a file can be easily shared with others. Think of it as a digital newspaper subscription that updates itself with all the latest articles as soon as they are published. All you have to do, is tune in.

For example, every time we publish a new blog post it would notify you in your feed reader and you can actually read and access the article right from your feed reader.

If you have any Google account login, you already have a feed reader, you just may not know it. I personally use Google Reader to keep track of hundreds of agricultural websites to stay current on ag industry news and issues.


So sign up for your automatic feed by clicking the orange symbol at the bottom left of this webpage.
