On this edition of Hoosier Ag This Week: We have planting updates from four different farmers from four different parts of the state in our Hoosier Ag Today Crop Tour! You'll hear from Jenna Scott in Delaware County, Ryan Rippy in Montgomery County, J.R. Roesner in Dubois County, and Denise Scarborough in LaPorte County as they share their progress this Spring. You'll also hear from David Cobb with Clean Fuels Alliance America about the burdens that EPA and the federal government have placed on the biofuels industry, which have also created burdens for corn and soybean producers as well. And you'll meet retired U.S. Army Colonel Joe Ricker, who started At Ease Orchard in Hancock County to train veterans in need to become beekeepers and farmers. Ricker's farm has drawn the attention of a lot of folks--including Indiana Governor Mike Braun, who made a visit to Ricker's farm last week. All that, plus Brian Basting with Advance Trading previews Monday's WASDE Report, and HAT Chief Meteorologist gives us his Indiana Planting Weather Forecast for the coming week!

Hello and welcome to the ZimmCast. I'm Chuck Zimmerman. While Cindy was home during the major snow storm in Florida I was attending the Clean Fuels Conference in San Diego, CA. The weather was delightful for the conference. However, in the Pensacola, FL area there was eight to ten inches of snow, something that hasn't happened in over 150 years! But it has all melted and we're mostly back to normal. So, let's talk about clean fuels. We created a virtual ag newsroom once again for the conference that used to be named the National Biodiesel Conference. It was the first one we created many years ago. You can find that newsroom with photos, interviews and session audio right here. In this episode I'm going to share some of the interviews I did. So, let's get started. First up I interviewed Kent Engelbrecht, ADM, serving as Chairman of the Clean Fuels Alliance America. Following him is Kurt Kovarik, VP of Government Affairs, Clean Fuels; then Tom Verry, Director of Outreach and Development; and to close things up I interviewed Donnell Rehagen, CEO, Clean Fuels. In addition to the virtual ag newsroom on AgNewsWire we also posted content onto the Clean Fuels Conference Blog which you can find here. Now that I've been catching up I'm getting ready for the CattleCon 2025 working with the National Cattlemen's Beef Association. At the same time Cindy will be at the Crop Insurance and Reinsurance Bureau annual meeting. It's just that busy time of the year. So, that's the ZimmCast for now. I hope you enjoy it and thank you for listening.
