On episode 25 of the Farm.One podcast, Rob, Michael and Ina dip their toes into the world of plant-based dairy alternatives.

The changing landscape of the dairy industry and how cow milk producers are responding.
The fascinating engineering challenges of trying to make products like plant-based cheese and yogurt -- it's more than just flavor!
