  • What a great laugh.

    Every time I see the notification pop up that a podcast has arrived I get excited as I know I’m going to have an hour of informative and slightly nonsensical agricultural information.

    Wish Andrew would put on a thicker accent, it’s so sexy.

    Good content,

    but when listening to in the tractor difficult to hear play both as the volume of the presenters is louder for one than the other so it’s too loud in the cab for one person and too quiet for the other

    Love the content boys, always spot on with your predictions. Can you please sort out why Matt is so much louder than Andrew. Cheers

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

AgWatchersX EP6: Why are grain prices low, grain fed beef on the rise
Q: Do you think that's, do you think we're going to see like, I know we've talked about it before about increasing sheep feedlots, but do you think like with cattle, we're going to see a further expansion of it?
Yeah, it's not going to be, it's been slow and steady presently, and if you look at the longer-term trend over the last two decades, we were about 25% getting turned off out of a feedlot and 75% grass finished, whereas now we're at that 39%.
AI Explosion
Q: Why should farmers use this type of technology?
Larger ag fund managers use it for due diligence, but we've made the technology accessible for mom and dad farmers as well, allowing them to get soil data quickly.
AI Explosion
Q: What has caused this massive jump in AI in the last couple of years?
The public introduction of ChatGPT and generative AI has pushed AI to the forefront, making it a global conversation.
AI Explosion
Q: Lachie, tell us about who you are, where you're from and what you do.
I'm from Melbourne, and I founded Algorithm, a company that measures farms in Australia, analyzing soil moisture and productivity using AI and satellites.
Why doesn't it rain on me, in SA and Victoria?
Q: What's the kind of forecast for the next bit of a few weeks to months for that southern area that's in drought?
The break, when it comes, will be an act of weather; it won't be an act of climate without a lot of predictability.
