Podcasts about Agribusiness

Most farmers think tax credits are for tech companies and laboratories. They're wrong. The Research & Development tax credit has been around since 1981 — originally built to encourage innovation. Over the decades, it has become more taxpayer-friendly and more accessible… but still incredibly underutilized in agriculture. In this episode, we talk with Onshore, a tax technology company founded in 2020. Joining us: • Tim Taschner – Midwest native who grew up around ADM, now leading agricultural R&D tax credit case studies • Dominic Vitucci – CEO with a background in accounting and computer science, blending tax expertise with automation We break down: • What the R&D tax credit actually is • The history behind it and how it evolved • What qualifies in agriculture (farming, livestock, food processing) • Why testing new hybrids, chemistries, feed strategies, or processes may qualify • How AI now automates roughly 80% of the documentation process • What “audit-ready documentation” actually means • The difference between deductions and credits • What happens if you haven't paid taxes yet • How credits can carry back or forward • Why cost segregation and 179D deductions also matter Onshore's mission is simple: Turn tax incentives from a confusing compliance burden into a strategic advantage. Instead of spending weeks building documentation manually, their software integrates with enterprise systems, processes data quickly, and delivers clean, audit-ready support — including free audit defense. In today's tight-margin environment, producers and agribusinesses can't afford to overlook legitimate credits. If you operate: • 800+ acres • Livestock operations • Food processing • Agribusiness support companies • Or any operation testing improvements This conversation could directly impact your bottom line. Because the smartest operators don't just grow crops.

Farmland sales have fallen to a record low in the past 12 months, but value has reached a new peak. Data from Ray White shows there just 5 408 transactions last year but farms are sitting at a national median price of around $10 000 per hectare. Experts say drought affected farmers are hesitant to put their farms on the market while producers experiencing better seasonal conditions are wanting to hold on to their operations. Rural Editor spoke with Elders General Manager of Farmland Agency and Agribusiness investment Mark Barber about the trends. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Most farming families don't break when things go wrong.They break when pressure becomes the normal state — and nobody notices until the cost shows up years later.In this conversation, Ben sits down with Ali Flynn — therapist, facilitator and high-performance practitioner — to talk about the kind of resilience that actually holds up under real-world pressure. Not the “push harder” version. Not the silent grind. But the type that protects decision-making, relationships, health, and long-term leadership capacity when the stakes are high and the margin for error is thin.This episode speaks directly to families who are carrying responsibility across generations — the ones juggling business complexity, family dynamics, unpredictable seasons, and the constant expectation to stay sharp no matter what's happening in the background. When pressure rises, why do some people stay calm, clear, and connected — while others slowly slip into reaction, withdrawal, or burnout without realising it's happening?Ali brings lived experience, clinical depth, and a grounded understanding of high-performance environments to unpack what's really going on beneath the surface when capable people start making poor decisions, shutting down, or running on empty. The conversation challenges the idea that resilience is just about toughness, and instead points to something far more strategic — and far more sustainable.If you've ever wondered why smart, driven people can still feel overwhelmed…why success sometimes comes with an invisible cost…or how pressure quietly reshapes behaviour inside families and businesses —this is one worth listening to all the way through.----------------------------------------www.morrisseyco.com.au ----------------------------------Katie's communication training program, Grassroots Communication, teaches the exact skills, top families in ag use to increase trust, increase family alignment, and strengthen long-term relationships.If you want to get ahead of the game, head on over to katiegodden.com/grassroots and use the code AGRICOACH for 15% off.-----------------------Ben spent over 20 years working with successful business owners and farming families which allowed him to unearth the timeless principles on how to successfully grow, protect and maintain wealth.If you want to learn the principles of how to grow your family's wealth throughout the generations, then you might consider joining The AgriCoach Podcast each fortnight for more Wealth & Wisdom.Disclaimer: The information contained in this podcast is general in nature and for education purposes only.

Agriculture has always required resilience — but today's producers are navigating unprecedented levels of uncertainty. Inflation pressures, volatile commodity markets, tariffs, succession stress, and rising input costs are creating a heavy emotional load across farm families. In this powerful and deeply needed conversation, we sit down with Colleen Stegenga of Embracing Change Counseling to talk openly about mental health in agriculture. Colleen shares her background, her connection to farming, and how she found her calling in mental health support. Together, we unpack the difference between normal stress and mental health concerns, how to recognize warning signs, when to seek help, and how to start difficult conversations. We also go deeper — addressing stigma in rural communities, suicide awareness, emergency situations, and the resources available to producers and their families. This episode is honest, compassionate, and essential listening for anyone in agriculture. About Our Guest Colleen Stegenga is a mental health professional and founder of Embracing Change Counseling. With a deep understanding of both rural life and emotional wellbeing, Colleen works closely with individuals and families navigating stress, transition, anxiety, grief, and crisis. Her passion lies in supporting farming communities with practical tools, compassionate guidance, and real conversations that break down stigma and isolation.  In This Episode, We Discuss: * Colleen's background and journey into mental health and agriculture * The current mental health landscape in farming communities * Financial stress, commodity volatility, inflation, and external pressures * The difference between mental health and mental illness * How to distinguish normal stress from deeper mental health concerns * When it's time to seek professional support * The state of stigma in rural communities * Suicide awareness, warning signs, and prevention * How to start conversations when you're worried about someone * What to do in an emergency mental health situation * Where to find training, support, and trusted resources Farming requires strength. But strength is not silence. Resilience doesn't mean carrying everything alone. If you're struggling — or if someone around you is — help is available. Conversations matter. Support exists. And there is hope, even in the hardest seasons. If this episode resonated with you: * Share it with someone in your farm community * Start one meaningful conversation this week * Subscribe to The Impact Farming Show * Leave a review to help more producers access these critical conversations And remember — taking care of your mental health is just as important as managing your operation.

Canada is facing a quiet but urgent agricultural crisis. Nearly 3,000 family farms disappear every year — not because families want to leave farming, but because outdated inheritance rules are forcing impossible financial decisions. In this episode, Tracy sits down with Derryn Shrosbree, founder of 33seven and a national expert in farm succession and estate equalization, to unpack how current tax laws prevent many farmers from passing their land to nieces and nephews without triggering massive tax burdens. With the average Canadian farmer now 56 years old and fewer than 1 in 12 farms having a successor under 40, the future of family agriculture is at risk. This conversation explores what's happening behind the scenes, the real human cost to families, and what policy reform could mean for the next generation of Canadian farming. This isn't just a farm issue — it's about food security, rural communities, and protecting a cornerstone of Canada's economy. Highlights - Why nearly 3,000 Canadian family farms disappear every year - How outdated inheritance rules trigger crippling tax bills - The unfair gap affecting nieces and nephews working family farms - The aging farming population and succession crisis - The risk of farmland consolidation and foreign ownership - Economic impacts on rural communities and Canadian food security - Real stories from the front lines of farm succession planning - Practical steps families can take right now - What reform to the Income Tax Act could change - A vision for the future of intergenerational farming in Canada If this episode resonates with you, share it with a farming family, policymaker, or community leader. Awareness drives change and protecting family farms protects Canada's agricultural future.
