  • Great podcast on Agriculture

    Really enjoyed listening to your guest on Teff. I am trying to eat healthier and just ordered some of the product. It was enjoyable to listen to here story about growing a different cash crop. I also enjoyed the podcast on growing food in the commercial buildings. Thanks for what you do to spread the news of great new business ideas in agriculture.

    Really enjoying this podcast while I’m out monitoring pest/diseases in grapes! Wanted to share in response to episode 311 that there are commercial vermicompost facilities in northern CA - check out TerraVesco based in Sonoma. Our local growers love it!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Technology at the Farm-Gate with Nebraska Farmer Quentin Connealy
Q: How has technology changed your life as a farmer over the last decade?
Technology has extended our ability to manage water, nitrogen, and field tasks from a centralized Ops Center, giving more control, saving time, and enabling a more informed, family-focused farming lifestyle.
Technology at the Farm-Gate with Nebraska Farmer Quentin Connealy
Q: What tech is working well for you versus what doesn't fit your operation?
Irrigation management and moisture probes have become essential, while some AI tools require careful integration and a measured, field-by-field approach to avoid misapplication; the best results come from collaboration with market partners who adapt products to farm realities.
Agricultural Exceptionalism and Farm Policy with Jonathan Coppess
Q: What could a more effective policy look like, especially regarding conservation and risk management?
A more effective policy would better align incentives with environmental benefits and farmer resilience, integrating risk management with conservation efforts, reducing backlogs, and ensuring programs are scalable and adaptable to climate-driven risk. The guest emphasizes the need for science-informed modeling to test policy changes before implementation.
Agricultural Exceptionalism and Farm Policy with Jonathan Coppess
Q: Is ag policy working, and is the farm bill still relevant?
The guest argues that, overall, the policy is not working as intended because payments and entrenched rules incentivize overproduction and rarely adapt quickly enough to changing markets. The farm bill remains relevant but complex, with reform hampered by budget rules, coalition politics, and the incentives created by decoupled payments and ad hoc programs.
Does Organic Farming Have a Tillage Problem? | Andrew Smith, Ph.D. of the Rodale Instititute
Q: Is organic farming more profitable compared to conventional farming?
Yes, organic farming is generally more profitable due to the price premium and reduced costs in comparison to conventional farming, even without the price premium.
