Most farmers spend their time focused on production. Plant the crop, raise the yield, deliver it to the local elevator, and move on to the next task. But what happens after that may have just as much impact on profitability as anything done in the field.In this episode of the AgCulture Podcast, Paul sits down with Mike Steenhoek, Executive Director of the Soy Transportation Coalition, for a fascinating look at the transportation system that moves American agriculture. From trucks and railroads to barges, ports, and ocean vessels, Mike explains how commodities travel from rural America to customers around the world—and why transportation costs can have a direct impact on every farmer's bottom line.The conversation explores aging infrastructure, rural bridges, Mississippi River bottlenecks, rail transportation, global trade disruptions, and why events happening thousands of miles away can affect grain prices in your local community.If you've ever wondered how a soybean grown in Iowa ends up feeding livestock in China—or why transportation matters more than most farmers realize—this episode is for you.MEET THE GUESTMike Steenhoek serves as Executive Director of the Soy Transportation Coalition (STC), an organization established by the United Soybean Board, the American Soybean Association, and thirteen state soybean boards to promote a cost-effective, reliable, and competitive transportation system for agriculture.In his role, Mike works with farmers, industry leaders, transportation providers, and policymakers to improve the infrastructure that supports U.S. agriculture. His work spans trucking, railroads, inland waterways, ports, and global supply chains—all with the goal of helping farmers remain competitive in international markets.Mike currently serves on the U.S. Department of Commerce's Advisory Committee on Supply Chain Competitiveness and the Iowa Department of Transportation's Freight Advisory Council.Before joining the Soy Transportation Coalition, Mike spent eight years working for U.S. Senator Charles Grassley of Iowa, serving both in Washington, D.C. and Des Moines.

Exclusion of evidence and habeas corpus? Who needs us? It's a Dallin Oaks episode and we go over two law review articles (pub. 1966 & 70) he wrote focusing on the rights of criminals. How we handle evidence consistent with the constitution is a complicated issue and Hoaks has a hot take. Plus, he thinks habeas corpus has gotten a bit out of hand with how many death row convicts it was helping. Then we dive through 2 more chapters from Pure in Heart about Spirituality and Worship. The hot takes here are akin to moldy soup in the back of the fridge.

https://agxplore.com/assessment/ How do top growers consistently push yield boundaries while still focusing on return on investment? In this special Farm4Profit episode recorded from the AgX booth at Commodity Classic, Tanner and Corey sit down with AgX Sales Agronomist Billy Carter and three progressive farmers who are proving what's possible in modern agriculture. Minnesota farmer Ron Pagel shares how he surpassed the 300-bushel corn mark by combining advanced fertility programs, drone applications, fungicide timing, and a commitment to trying new ideas. Wisconsin farmer Dave Justman discusses balancing farming, retail agronomy, and the pursuit of higher-yielding soybeans while helping customers implement proven agronomic practices. Kentucky farmer and Kentucky Soybean Association President Jonathan Reynolds explains how conservation practices, cover crops, no-till management, and long-term soil health improvements have created a foundation for both yield and profitability. Throughout the conversation, Billy Carter breaks down the agronomic principles behind AgX's high-yield programs, including seed treatments, fertility management, fungicide strategies, plant growth regulation, hybrid selection, and the importance of focusing on details many growers overlook. Topics include: Breaking the 300-bushel corn barrier Building profitable high-yield systems Contest plots versus whole-farm ROI Cover crops and soil health as yield drivers Fragipan soils and improving water infiltration Nitrogen efficiency and fertility management Hybrid and variety selection strategies Drone applications and late-season management High-yield soybean challenges and opportunities The role of mindset, observation, and continuous learning Whether you're chasing yield contest results or simply looking to improve efficiency and profitability across your operation, this episode delivers practical lessons from growers who are constantly pushing the limits of what's possible in the field.

This year as part of their state of the farm report, agtech company Bushel surveyed farmers about their usage of AI.

Agriculture doesn't have a reputation for being the most technologically advanced industry, but that doesn't mean farmers aren't willing to adopt new technology.

The age of the farmer has been gradually moving higher, but some are noticing a shift to younger operators.

Harvest efficiency has always been one of the biggest profit drivers on the farm—but it's also been one of the hardest things to measure accurately. In this What's Working in Ag segment from Commodity Classic, we sat down with Marcel from Bushel Plus to talk about a simple idea that's making a major impact: actually measuring grain loss instead of guessing. For years, farmers relied on rough estimates—counting kernels on the ground, making visual judgments, or simply trusting experience. But as combines become more advanced with automation, sensors, and data systems, the need for accurate, real-world calibration has never been more important. That's where Bushel Plus comes in. Their SmartPan system allows operators to safely and quickly measure exactly what's coming out the back of the combine. With a remote-controlled drop pan, farmers can capture a sample during harvest, separate the grain from residue, and calculate true loss in just a few minutes. No guesswork. No unsafe methods. Just real numbers. And those numbers matter. Even a small amount of grain loss—just a couple bushels per acre—can add up to significant dollars across an operation. In many cases, farmers are surprised at how much they're actually losing. Once they see it, they can't unsee it—and more importantly, they can fix it. The impact goes beyond just saving grain. Reducing loss also means fewer volunteer crops, less need for additional passes or herbicide, and better overall field management. What makes this even more relevant today is the integration with modern combine technology. With John Deere's recent partnership and endorsement, SmartPan is now being used to “ground truth” combine automation systems—helping machines calibrate properly and hit target loss levels more accurately. Whether you're running the latest high-tech combine or an older machine, the concept is the same: you can't manage what you don't measure. And for many farmers, this tool pays for itself almost immediately—sometimes within the first few fields. The bottom line: harvest is too important—and margins are too tight—to leave bushels in the field. Tools like this are helping farmers capture more of what they've already worked all season to grow.

For twenty years, the math for U.S. grain storage was simple: for every extra bushel the American farmer grew, the industry built a bushel of space to hold it. But according to University of Illinois economist Joe Janzen, that "bushel-for-bushel" trend has officially snapped. In this episode of Grain IQ, Janzen noted that while U.S. grain production continues to climb in a "straight line," aggregate storage capacity has been flat since 2020. Grain IQ is an original production of the Nebraska Rural Radio Association with support from the Nebraska Soybean Board.

This episode is a masterclass in what real innovation in agriculture actually looks like.In this conversation, Marcel Kringe — founder of Bushel Plus — walks through how a simple, frustrating, and overlooked problem on the farm turned into a global business serving farmers in over 45 countries. What started as trying to figure out grain loss behind a combine became a system that is now influencing how some of the largest equipment manufacturers in the world think about data, automation, and efficiency.Marcel doesn't come at this from theory or Silicon Valley thinking. This is built from the ground up — from working in the dust, seeing real losses, and asking a simple question: there has to be a better way.The result is a business rooted in first principles: measure what matters, solve a real problem, and create immediate value for the farmer.If you care about agtech, innovation, or building something that actually works in the field — this one is worth your time.MEET THE GUESTMarcel Kringe is the Founder and CEO of Bushel Plus (Soon to be BranValt), a globally recognized ag-tech company specializing in harvest optimization. With over 20 years of hands-on experience in large-scale farming operations, Marcel has built a reputation for bridging the gap between field-level realities and cutting-edge agricultural innovation. His work has taken him across the globe, where he's collaborated with farmers, agronomists, and equipment manufacturers to improve harvest outcomes.  Marcel's passion for helping farmers stems from his own background in agriculture and a deep respect for the challenges producers face every season. He believes that every farmer deserves access to tools and knowledge that can make their work more efficient, profitable, and sustainable. Through Bushel Plus, Marcel is committed to empowering growers with practical solutions that reduce loss, increase yield, and support long-term success in the field.ABOUT THE PODCASTDiscover the world of agriculture with the "Ag Culture Podcast".This podcast will be a gateway for those passionate about agriculture to explore its global perspectives and innovative practices.Join Paul as he shares his experiences in the agricultural industry, his travels and encounters with important figures around the world.Available on YouTube, Spotify and Apple Podcasts.Subscribe at http://www.agculturepodcast.com and keep an eye out for future episodes, bringing insights and stories from the vibrant world of agriculture.

The EPA is releasing its long-awaited Renewable Volume Obligations (RVOs), and this week we discuss what those standards could mean for agriculture. We also break down what the ongoing U.S.-Iran conflict could mean for fertilizer prices and availability for farmers. Other agriculture news this week includes Illinois officially moving to a B20 biodiesel blend requirement to qualify for the tax credit, new findings from Bushel on farmers' digital tool usage, and the United States Department of Agriculture announcing plans to move the United States Forest Service headquarters from Washington to Utah. We also discuss what officials are saying about reopening the U.S.-Mexico border for cattle trade, along with some Easter-related news involving chocolate and eggs. This week's interview is with Josh Linville of StoneX, who explains how the conflict involving Iran is impacting fertilizer supply and costs. He notes that roughly one-third of global fertilizer trade, along with significant volumes of oil, natural gas and crop nutrients, move through the Strait of Hormuz. Linville says the conflict could create long-term ripple effects across supply chains, raising energy and fertilizer costs for months and potentially into 2027. While some farmers and agribusinesses may already have portions of their fuel and fertilizer needs locked in, many will still feel the impact of higher prices during an already tight-margin year.
