Caz Graham talks to the President of the Irish Farmers Association, Francie Gorman, about the journey he's embarking upon from Dublin to Brussels by tractor as part of a Europe wide protest. Farmers are concerned about Common Agricultural Policy reforms, which could see the budget ringfenced for farm subsidies cut by around 20%. They're also angry about the potential impact of a trade deal between the EU and the South American bloc MERCOSUR, which could mean an increase in beef from Brazil and other cheap imports. An environmental group in Northern Ireland plans to demonstrate the benefits of nature friendly farming on a 90-acre hillside farm it's recently bought in County Fermanagh. The Ulster Wildlife Trust says the new Fedian Nature Reserve is a rare example of farmland largely free of chemical or fertiliser inputs.Traditional rural buildings are rich with history and a unique record of how farming and country life has changed over the centuries. But many are under threat; they're expensive to maintain and often not practical for modern use. Throughout this week we're going to be hearing about efforts to preserve them, and we start in Nottinghamshire where an old farmstead has been repurposed as The Walks of Life Museum in Tuxford.

In this episode, chartered accountant Desry Lesele, driven by his Limpopo farm roots and role as Nedbank's senior agriculture manager, shows farmers how to conquer rising costs, weather volatility, and tight margins with tailored financial tools for growth and resilience.From witnessing his grandmother's struggles growing sorghum and maize, Lesele crafts solutions against input price surges, grain oversupply, and climate threats risking 40% yield losses, urging early banker ties, tech investments, and diversification.He insists that farmers should treat farming as a business by tracking records, planning strategically, and using finance as a survival edge for food security and rural jobs.

#253: Farmer, researcher, and author Helen Atthowe has spent 40 years building soil ecosystems that feed themselves while offering their own, living biologic controls In this conversation with Dave Chapman, she explains how living pathways - strips of cover crops and mulches between beds and orchard rows  - can replace tillage, fertilizers, and pesticides. Drawing from her experiences with Masanobu Fukuoka, and her own long-term experiments in Montana and Oregon with her late husband farmer Carl Rosato, Helen shares what it means to farm in partnership with nature rather than against it.https://realorganicproject.org/helen-atthowe-living-pathways-living-mulch-253The Real Organic Podcast is hosted by Dave Chapman and Linley Dixon, engineered by Brandon StCyr, and edited and produced by Jenny Prince.The Real Organic Project is a farmer-led movement working towards certifying 1,000 farms across the United States this year. Our add-on food label distinguishes soil-grown fruits and vegetables from hydroponically-raised produce, and pasture-raised meat, milk, and eggs from products harvested from animals in horrific confinement (CAFOs - confined animal feeding operations).To find a Real Organic farm near you, please visit:https://www.realorganicproject.org/directoryWe believe that the organic standards, with their focus on soil health, biodiversity, and animal welfare were written as they should be, but that the current lack of enforcement of those standards is jeopardizing the ability for small farms who adhere to the law to stay in business. The lack of enforcement is also jeopardizing the overall health of the customers who support the organic movement; customers who are not getting what they pay for at market but still paying a premium price. And the lack of enforcement is jeopardizing the very cycles (water, air, nutrients) that Earth relies upon to provide us all with a place to live, by pushing extractive, chemical agriculture to the forefront.If you like what you hear and are feeling inspired, we would love for you to join our movement by becoming one of our 1,000  Real Friends:https://www.realorganicproject.org/real-organic-friends/To read our weekly newsletter (which might just be the most forwarded newsletter on the internet!) and get firsthand news about what's happening with organic food, farming and policy, please subscribe here:https://www.realorganicproject.org/email/

(The Center Square) – The Trump administration has proposed $12 billion in federal aid to American farmers, with many undergoing what Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins described as an economic crisis. The Department of Agriculture will deliver the aid through one-time direct payments under its new Farmer Bridge Assistance program, meant to carry farmers from their current struggles to a “golden age for agriculture” the administration has promised. Payments will be released by Feb. 28, 2026, but farmers who qualify and apply will know what they're getting by the end of December, according to Rollins. Support this podcast: https://secure.anedot.com/franklin-news-foundation/ce052532-b1e4-41c4-945c-d7ce2f52c38a?source_code=xxxxxxRead more: https://www.thecentersquare.com/national/article_495e0723-2dcb-4032-8416-9bf94c6cb426.html Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Jenni Harris, Will's middle daughter, is a member of the fifth generation of the Harris family to tend cattle at White Oak Pastures. After living on the farm her entire life, Jenni went to Valdosta State University and earned a degree in Business Marketing, graduating in 2009. She remained intimately involved in the family business throughout her studies. After graduating, Jenni set out to learn the industry. She moved to Atlanta where she interned at Buckhead Beef, a SYSCO company. She put in time in every department, from shipping and receiving to the cut shop, and was later hired to work as a sales associate. In June of 2010, Jenni returned home to Early County to work for White Oak Pastures full time. As the Director of Marketing, Jenni spends her time focusing on the balance of ecommerce growth and wholesale relationships. Jenni is the proud mother of Jack and Lottie Harris, and wife of Director of Specialty Products, Amber Harris. In this episode, Jenni Harris shares how their multi-generational farm shifted from industrial to regenerative agriculture, restoring soil health and biodiversity through multi-species rotational grazing that mimics nature. She debunks the idea that eliminating meat consumption is the problem, arguing that well-managed livestock are essential to the carbon cycle and rural economies. She explains that cheap-food demand drove the rise of destructive industrial practices, and the real solution lies in consumers supporting local regenerative farmers to heal the land and rebuild a balanced food system.   RESOURCES: Learn more about White Oak Pastures here: https://whiteoakpastures.com Instagram: @whiteoakpastures Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/whiteoakpastures/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/whiteoakpastures Blog: https://blog.whiteoakpastures.com/blog Watch the water cycle vide mentioned here: https://youtu.be/85El8PzfKa4?si=9tIJMghJ03DAZRVz Get 15% off Peluva minimalist shoe with coupon code COACHTARA here: http://peluva.com/coachtara   CHAPTERS: 0:00 Intro 7:18 White Oak Pastures 14:50 What regenerative agriculture is about 23:47 The impact of stopping meat consumption 33:33 Farmers are responding to consumer demand 39:80 Industrialized practices tip off nature's balance 50:20 Support local farmers   WORK WITH ME: Are You Looking for Help on Your Wellness Journey?

BONUS: The Agile Organization as a Learning System Think Like a Farmer, Not a Factory Manager "Go slow to go fast. If you want to go somewhere, go together as a team. Take a farmer's mentality."   Simon contrasts monoculture industrial thinking with the permaculture approach of Joel Salatin. Industrial approaches optimize for short-term efficiency but create fragile systems. Farmer thinking recognizes that healthy ecosystems require patience, diversity, and nurturing conditions for growth. The nervous system that's constantly stressed never builds much over time—think of the body, trust the body, let the body be a body. Value Masters, Not Scrum Masters "We need value masters, not Scrum Masters. Agile is a useful tool for delivering value, but value itself is primary. Everything else is secondary—Agile included."   Tom makes his most provocative point: if you asked a top manager whether they'd prefer an agile person or value delivery, the answer is obvious. Agile is one tactic among many for delivering value—not even a necessary one. The shift required is from process mastery to value mastery, from Scrum Masters to people who understand and can deliver on critical stakeholder values. The DOVE Manifesto "I wrote a paper called DOVE—Deliver Optimum Values Efficiently. It's the manifesto focusing on delivering value, delivering value, delivering value."   Tom offers his alternative to the Agile Manifesto: a set of principles laser-focused on value delivery. The document includes 10 principles on a single page that can guide any organization toward genuine impact. Everything else—processes, frameworks, methodologies—are secondary tools in service of this primary goal. Read Tom's DOVE manifesto here.  Building the Glue Between Social and Physical Technology "Value is created in interactions. That's where the social and physical technology meet—that joyous boundary where stuff gets done."   Simon describes seeing the world through two lenses: physical technology (visible tools and systems) and social technology (culture, relationships, the air we breathe). Eric Beinhoeker's insight is that progress happens at the intersection. The Gilbian learning loops provide the structure; trust and human connection provide the fuel. Together, they create organizations that can actually learn and adapt.   Further Reading To Support Your Learning Journey Resources & Further Reading Explore these curated resources to deepen your understanding of strategic planning, value-based management, and transformative organizational change.    

Audley Moore mentored Malcolm X, popularized reparations for African Americans in a 1963 essay, and advanced the cause of Black women in both the Black nationalist and civil rights movements. She rubbed elbows with the Mandelas, Jessie Jackson, and Rosa Parks. Once a household name in the mid-20th century, she has fallen out of the history books, despite a career of organizing and activism that spanned a century, her artifacts lost and her archives scattered. But more than 100 years after Moore's birth and 28 years after her death, Ashley D. Farmer has written the first biography of Moore, Queen Mother: Black Nationalism, Reparations, and the Untold Story of Audley Moore. Farmer brings together a decade of research spanning oral history, archival work from Louisiana to New York City, and, of course, reams of FBI documents to paint the fullest picture of this icon's life to date.Go beyond the episode:Ashley D.

They discuss the history of Italian neighborhoods in Chicago, the importance of preserving language and cultural identity, and the role of storytelling in connecting with one's roots. Christina shares insights from her literary work, including her dissertation on the evil eye in Italian American literature, and emphasizes the need for cultural education and the preservation of family stories.Christina's grandfathers were Sicilian immigrants to America.The displacement of Italian communities in Chicago has left a lasting impact.Cultural identity is often tied to language and community.Many Italian neighborhoods have been gentrified and lost their original character.Preserving family stories is crucial for future generations.Cultural education should start at a young age to instill a sense of identity.Dialects are an important part of Italian heritage and should be recognized as full languages.Literature can bridge cultural gaps and explore complex identities.The evil eye is a significant cultural belief in Italian communities.It's important to document and share personal and family histories.Turnkey.

On this edition of the Mid-West Farm Report Ride Along, we head to northern Illinois to visit the Syngenta Seeds Research & Development Innovation Center. The question? How big of a problem is corn rootworm(CRW) for farmers today? What new technology's being developed to address that problem? Pam Jahnke is joined by Syngenta Corn Product Manager, Matt Dolch. Dolch began his career with Syngenta as an intern, and today is proud to be discussing the latest technology coming to corn fields across the Midwest by 2027. Dolch says that CRW is one of the most devastating pests in U.S. corn production. Farmers spend nearly $1 billion per year in control measures and lost yield. That's why Syngenta decided to focus on new innovations to battle the pest.Syngenta is accelerating trait innovation that delivers new differentiation, not incrementalupdates. Their innovation focuses on multi-protein stacks that bring more diversity to CRW control.Syngenta does this by leveraging innovation pipelines and trait development tools to shorten the time from R&D to the farm.Durastak is the flagship example, built to address both current resistance challenges andfuture durability needs. Durastak is the industry’s first three Bt-protein trait stack for corn rootworm control.It provides a new level of durability and efficacy by offering additional protein diversity compared to existing products. Dolch says that Durastak should be available from dealers by the fall of 2026, for planting in the 2027 growing season!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
