  • Ty is the man

  • Good information

    I understand it’s put on by the farm bureau and I find that information interesting since it is a large aspect of our state’s economy and lifestyle. However, I wish there were more episodes on more diverse issues the state is facing even if not specifically an agriculture issue. I loved the interviews of candidates during election season.

  • What a joke!

    It’s ironic that the show is titled Town Hall because Senator Ron Portman does not hold town halls with constituents! He only holds fundraising events and photo ops. He does nothing for Ohioans but talk which is not helpful. Rob needs to go!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

From the Ground Up: Farmer-Led Research
Q: What does success look like when the project is done?
Success includes clearer understanding of how clover and other practices affect nutrition and yields across diverse farms, stronger farmer collaboration, and data-driven templates that can be scaled to support broader farmer networks and policy discussions.
From the Ground Up: Farmer-Led Research
Q: What is the project trying to answer specifically, and why is it important for farmers to be at the center of this research?
The project seeks to understand how conservation practices perform under real-world farm conditions, with farmers selecting practices and guiding the research questions, resulting in findings that are directly relevant to on-farm decision-making.
From the Ground Up: Farmer-Led Research
Q: But what if research took a different angle, where farmers were the ones designing and implementing on-farm research projects that track the performances of conservation practices?
The guests discuss farmer-led, real-world experimentation that centers farmer questions, adapts to diverse fields, and uses university tools to measure outcomes, aiming to generate practical, replicable evidence for adoption.
The Future of USMCA
Q: Well, thank you. I appreciate that. And just kind of to start us off, can you give our listeners an overview of USMCA?
Dr. Sheldon explains that USMCA is a modernization of NAFTA with updates across intellectual property, digital trade, and labor and environmental standards, designed to strengthen cross-border trade while preserving tariff-free interactions and a stronger dispute-resolution mechanism.
A Look at AFBF's 2026 Fourth of July Survey
Q: Now, thanks to volunteer shoppers here in Ohio, we were also able to gather some state-specific results. Could you walk us through what we found here in Ohio and how those numbers compare to other regions in the country?
Ohio's average was slightly below the national average at about $7.37 per person, driven by relatively lower meat prices, lemonade, and potato salad. These state differences reflect local cost of living and purchasing patterns, while still fitting within the national inflation picture and the ongoing shifts in inputs and consumer prices.
