Podcasts about farmers

Why can mental health be so difficult to talk about in agriculture? Sam and Easton explore the unique pressures farmers carry—from finances and isolation to the responsibility of keeping land and a family legacy alive. Rather than blaming farmers for being unwilling to talk, they challenge agriculture to create better opportunities for conversations to happen naturally and earlier.Sam shares the story behind Perfect Sundays, a six-episode fictional drama created after farmers repeatedly encouraged him to address farmer suicide following the success of his film Silo. The series follows a dairy family rebuilding after losing its patriarch to suicide and a mother's attempt to create a value-added ice cream business. By using entertainment and authentic farm storytelling, Sam hopes viewers see themselves in the characters and begin conversations that may otherwise be difficult to have. Easton introduces Project Farm Dog, a nonprofit shaped in part by his family's experience losing his father after a long battle with alcoholism. Farm Dog isn't intended to replace crisis resources such as 988. Its focus is prevention: reducing stigma, connecting farmers with professionals who understand agriculture, and funding care so cost and insurance don't become additional barriers. Its “trusted ear” concept comes from the relationship many farmers have with their farm dog—a place where even the toughest farmer may let their guard down. The message is ultimately about acting before the difficult season arrives. Just as farmers prepare equipment, marketing plans and labor before harvest, Easton argues that health, wellness and relationships should be part of that same checklist. Building resilience, checking on a neighbor, saying a problem out loud, and knowing where to turn for help can all make a difference. Farmer mental health isn't one person's responsibility—it will take farmers, families, agribusinesses and communities working together to make asking for help a normal part of agriculture.

Series: The Parables SeriesSpeaker: Bryan H. Kim

This past week, our friends at Farm Aid celebrated the 40th anniversary of the United Farmer and Rancher Congress, held in St. Louis. The country was in the middle of one of the worst farm crises we'd ever seen, and solutions from America's leaders were not plentiful, nor particularly helpful. As Hightower put it in his 1984 speech to the DNC:Since 1981 when this guy took office, it's been hog-feedin' time at the Reagan White House. The hogs that just got feeding at the trough in Washington DC today, they have climbed up in the trough and they're wallowing in it up in there. If you're an international banker who made bad loans, no problem, Ronny Reagan will give you a multibillion-dollar bailout. If you're Ed Meese and you get caught in an embarrassing personal financial situation, no problem. Ronny Reagan will make you Attorney General. And if you're any right-wing Latin American dictator with a pair of sunglasses, this administration will give you enough money to burn a wet mule.But if you're just an old dirt farmer out there, needing a little bit of extra loan because your prices don't even cover expenses, this bunch slams the door of your own government right in your own face.After the success of the first Farm Aid concert in 1985, Willie Nelson and his crew didn't stop there— they kept organizing. In the spirit of the four farmers in Lampasas, Texas, getting together in the early 1870s to figure out how they were going to fight the banks and policies that were screwing them, Farm Aid brought together nearly 2,000 farmers and ranchers in 1986 to fight that same fight once again. Michael Foley, Farm Aid's current Cultural Impact Director, wrote up a wonderful article exploring the groundbreaking work that was accomplished:But organizers did not spend months pulling together the United Farmer and Rancher Congress only to issue forceful condemnations of the powerful. They came with solutions, the most fundamental of which was to stand together and transcend all of their differences. The Congress was incredibly diverse, made up of white, black, Latino and Tribal producers and coming from nearly all 50 states, producing every type of farm product imaginable. When Wayne Cryts of the American Agriculture Movement (AAM) spoke at the first plenary session and appealed for unity, he took off his AAM cap and put on a white UFRC trucker cap. The symbolism of every delegate in the auditorium following suit and taking off their own hats and putting on the UFRC caps may seem trivial, but it signaled a desire to overcome presumed differences and solidarity in spite of everything.No one spoke more pointedly, or with more authority, about surmounting difference than Jesse Jackson. “Unless we come out of isolation…unless we build a movement of farmers and consumers and workers and other allies, these monopolies will without mercy drive us beneath the soil.” He called on everyone in the room to hold hands and to hold their hands up high and to “turn to each other, not on each other” as the powers that be would want. That unity, he argued, is the basis for real political power.Make sure you check out the whole piece—and the next time someone tells you they think all those farmers out there are “conservative,” show them this work. ✊Jim Hightower's Lowdown is a reader-supported publication.

This week in Insurance Town, Mayor sits down with longtime friend and fellow insurance leader Heath Barnett, co-owner of Legacy, for a conversation about growth, culture, ownership, and building a business people actually want to be part of.Heath Barnett is an insurance agency leader and co-owner of Legacy. After beginning his career in the captive insurance world, Heath transitioned into the independent channel and helped build Legacy into a multi-state insurance organization.His leadership philosophy centers on developing people, creating opportunities for ownership, giving local leaders autonomy, and building an organization where professional success doesn't have to come at the expense of family and the things that matter most.Heath's story starts in Memphis, Texas, where he grew up around agriculture, small-town relationships, and a family Farmers agency. After working alongside his grandfather and eventually purchasing the agency, Heath began seeing opportunities beyond the captive model. That journey ultimately led him into the independent insurance world and to what has become Legacy—an organization that has grown to roughly 250 people across multiple states.But this episode isn't simply about getting bigger.It's about how you grow without losing who you are.Heath and Mayor talk about the importance of training agents to understand what they are actually selling instead of competing on price alone. They dig into what the captive world can teach independent agencies about carrier training and development, why Legacy intentionally recruits coaches and teachers, and why the right culture can become one of the strongest recruiting and retention tools an agency has.They also get into ownership, succession planning, producer autonomy, burnout, family priorities, faith, and creating an organization where people have the opportunity to build something of their own.If you're an agency owner thinking about growth, recruiting, producer development, culture, or succession, there are plenty of nuggets in this one.Episode Timestamps00:00 – Welcome to Insurance Town03:21 – Meet Heath Barnett09:27 – Leaving the captive model for the independent channel10:34 – Rebuilding culture in the independent insurance world15:43 – What Farmers got right about training and support18:26 – Stop selling price and start understanding the product21:54 – Why Legacy recruits coaches and teachers29:19 – Burnout, family priorities, and faith at work32:53 – The original vision for Legacy's growth36:54 – Why producers choose the Legacy model41:41 – Ownership, succession, and protecting an agent's book43:42 – Why Legacy moved beyond the traditional last-name agency model44:53 – Connecting with Heath Barnett and Legacy45:45 – Legacy's growing multi-state footprint46:02 – What could be next for Legacy49:19 – Texas football, Texas Tech, and the Longhorns51:15 – Closing thoughtsLearn more about Legacy at legacyinsurance1.com.Proud Partners of Insurance TownCanopy ConnectStop chasing down declaration pages and PDFs.

In this inaugural live session of the One Deal a Week Blueprint, we sit down with Houston real estate agent David Gloger to break down his current pipeline and build a predictable 30–60–90 day roadmap to scale to 1 transaction per week.We dive deep into:- The Shepherd, Farmer & Fisherman Framework: Why building marketing assets (farming) is great, but proactive outreach (fishing) is the fastest way to control your income.- Finding Pocket Buyers: How to use LeadDeck to identify local portfolio buyers and active landlords who are ready to make cash offers on your off-market leads.- Working Cash Offer Leads: What to do when a homeowner requests a cash offer—from institutional buyers (iList/QuickBuy) to private portfolio buyers to pivoting to open market listings.- Structuring an Off-Market Deal: How to present unlisted properties to investor buyers without naming a price first, and how representation/paperwork works when a seller wants a private sale.- Time Blocking for Production: Why carving out just two 1-hour proactive outreach blocks per week will unlock consistent deal flow.

There have been violent clashes during big farmer protests in Romania. Thousands of shepherds have been demonstrating in the capital Bucharest about an extension to a ban on the export of live sheep. We speak to the BBC's Central Europe correspondent to find out why.The battle to find the best sheepdog handler in Britain and Ireland has been won by a Welsh hill farmer for the second year. After a three day competition in the Cotswolds, he's been named the 2026 International Sheepdog Society Supreme Champion.All this week we're looking at the work of agricultural cooperatives. In Scotland more than 50 farm coops serve around 25,000 members on everything from supply chain development, to branding and quality assurance. One of them is Scottish Agronomy, established in 1984, and now offering cropping advice to more than 200 members across Scotland and northern England. Each year they run crop trials across 30,000 plots, and it's the sharing of their findings, knowledge and expertise, they say, that keeps them ahead of the game.Presenter = Caz Graham Producer = Rebecca Rooney

In this episode of the Harvest Growth Podcast, Jon LaClare sits down with Whitney Glum, co-founder and COO of Farmers Defense, to explore how finding the right audience, testing ad creative, and listening to customers helped build a successful consumer brand.What started as protective sleeves for cannabis growers evolved into an outdoor apparel brand serving gardeners, cyclists, hikers, and even dog groomers. Whitney shares how early advertising challenges pushed the company to rethink its target market and discover a much larger audience for its products.We dive into the ecommerce marketing strategies behind that growth, including user-generated content, Meta advertising, and building a direct-to-consumer website that outsells the brand's Amazon channel. Whitney also explains how appearances on Good Morning America and QVC generated sales spikes and helped build customer trust.Beyond marketing, Whitney reveals how she used AI to build custom shipping and receiving software without a software engineering background. She also shares a simple way to uncover new product opportunities: paying attention to what customers search for on your website that you don't yet sell.In today's episode of the Harvest Growth Podcast, we cover:• How expanding beyond your original target audience can unlock new growth• Why relatable user-generated content works for Farmers Defense's core customers• How testing ad creative helps identify the messaging your audience responds to• Building website sales while expanding into Amazon• The impact of Good Morning America and QVC on sales and brand credibility• Using AI to solve shipping and inventory challenges• Turning website searches and customer feedback into new product ideas• Encouraging repeat purchases through new styles and complementary productsWant to learn more about Farmers Defense?Visit FarmersDefense.com to explore their protection sleeves, sun hoodies, hats, and outdoor apparel, or search for Farmers Defense on Amazon.Do you have a product you'd like to launch or scale?Visit HarvestGrowth.com to book a free consultation and learn about The Perfect Launch Blueprint, our process for identifying the right audience, messaging, offer, and marketing strategy before you spend heavily on media.

Farmers have been assessing the damage done by the summer's severe drought, but it's not just low crop yields they've had to face. Woodlands have also suffered, especially younger trees which haven't had time to get fully established, which can take up to five years. In 2024-25 just over 10 million individual trees were planted in England. How many of those have died? And what can farmers do if they've planted trees using grant money but now have thousands of dead saplings on their land? We speak to The Woodland Trust.The government's holding a wildfire summit next month - and MPs have been questioning ministers about how they handled wildfires over the summer and whether England was fully prepared to tackle them. On the day that the first Scottish Licences for burning moorland were open for applications, the Environment Food and Rural Affairs committee also discussed reducing fuel load on hillsides in England.We all like to get a bargain, and it's often the case that the bigger you are as a buyer, the more likely you are to find one. It's the same for farmers, and many have joined buying groups to source everything from seed, fertiliser, fuel and chemicals right down to mobile phones and stationery. All week we're looking at agricultural cooperatives, today it's a big one in Lincolnshire.Presenter = Anna Hill Producer = Rebecca Rooney

Five years ago, many people in the regenerative agriculture space thought that simply paying farmers for soil carbon storage would rewire the agricultural system in a heartbeat. It turned out to be considerably more difficult. The European soil carbon market has not scaled at the speed needed. The voluntary carbon market has not delivered the financing that was hoped for.Is regulation part of the answer? The solar market suggests yes.Christian Holzleitner is Head of Unit for Land Economy and Carbon Removals at DG CLIMA, European Commission, and one of the architects of the EU's Carbon Removal and Carbon Farming Regulation (CRCF). He is an economist by training who has spent his career designing market frameworks — including the EU's Innovation Fund and Modernization Fund — and is now applying the same logic to soil carbon.This episode is part of the podcast's carbon series, supported by the OGCR project.In this episode:— Why the CRCF is designed to solve a bureaucratic problem: farmers reporting the same data five times for five different schemes— How the solar feed-in tariff model could work for carbon farming — cover the funding gap until the market scales— What the EU ETS reform means for demand outside the agricultural value chain— Why a portfolio of small certified European projects is more attractive to institutional investors than a single large project in Africa— Why peatland rewetting in Finland is the landscape-scale intervention that excites Christian most— Why carbon is a means, not an objective — and what that means for how investors should think about this space— His magic wand answer: a single call for European carbon farming projects in the next EU multiannual budget.More about this episode.Thoughts?

Starting a farm has never been easy, and for today's beginning farmers and ranchers, the cost of land, equipment, livestock, and operating expenses can make getting established feel nearly impossible. But there are USDA programs designed to help, and understanding where to start can make a major difference.On this episode of North American Ag Spotlight, Chrissy Wozniak speaks with Amanda Robertson, National Outreach Specialist and Beginning Farmer and Rancher Regional Coordinator with the USDA Farm Service Agency. Amanda is also a sixth-generation farmer from Russell Springs, Kentucky, where her family operates a registered Angus and Hereford cattle operation. Amanda explains that USDA does not define a beginning farmer by age. Instead, the designation generally applies to someone who has not operated a farm for more than ten years. She also discusses some of the biggest barriers facing new producers today, particularly access to land and capital, and explains how FSA low-interest loan programs can help producers get started. The conversation walks through where a new farmer should begin with USDA, including why the local Farm Service Agency office is often the first stop and how farmers.gov can help producers understand available programs, prepare for meetings, and build a path toward financing, crop insurance, and other resources. Amanda also explains the importance of getting established in the USDA system with a farm serial number. Chrissy and Amanda also dig into financing, including FSA's microloan program for loans of $50,000 or less, and why a solid business plan, realistic projections, and honest communication with a loan officer are essential. Amanda encourages producers to be conservative in their estimates and avoid taking on unnecessary debt simply to have the newest equipment.   They also discuss how USDA measures success beyond simple enrollment numbers, including whether producers expand operations, improve land, participate in additional programs, or move into value-added agriculture. Amanda explains that USDA tries to track the longer-term journey of beginning farmers and how programs help them move from startup to growth. Amanda also shares her perspective on mentorship, stressing the value of learning directly from experienced farmers who have seen both the good and the bad of agriculture. She encourages aspiring producers not to give up on the idea of farming simply because the barriers look overwhelming at first. The episode also previews Amanda's upcoming appearance at the Women in Agribusiness Summit in New Orleans, where she will participate in the Farmers' Programs' Practical Implementation panel. The discussion will bring together USDA and producer perspectives to show how farmers have successfully used federal programs to build operations from the ground up.Learn more at farmers.gov/new-farmersSend us Fan MailSchedule a demo today at ecorobotix.com Introducing FarmNewsDaily.com - your source for agriculture news!Subscribe to North American Ag at https://northamericanag.com

Sometimes the toughest years force us to rethink the way we manage our ranches. Northern California rancher Kyle Farmer joins us to share how a devastating wildfire changed the way he looked at rebuilding and ultimately led him to become an early adopter of virtual fencing. We'll talk about how that technology has changed his approach to grazing, water and infrastructure development, fire mitigation, and even how he uses his time on the ranch. It's a conversation about looking beyond the way things have always been done and considering what might better prepare our ranches for the future. #WorkingRanchRadioShow #Ranching #VirtualFencing #Halter #GrazingManagement #Wildfire #RanchManagement

For decades, ordinary Swedes secretly prepared for the day Soviet forces might occupy their country. Farmers, factory workers, gamekeepers and travelling salesmen were recruited into a clandestine resistance network, trained to operate radios, use dead drops, scout escape routes and, if necessary, sabotage an invading army. Historian Johan Wennström joins me to reveal the extraordinary story behind Sweden's Stay Behind organisation. He explains why officially neutral Sweden quietly collaborated with MI6, the CIA and NATO, how the organisation preserved its secrecy, and why the royal family and government might have fled to Britain. We hear of mysterious Sunday walks, ammunition delivered to railway stations, aerial “elk surveys” concealing reconnaissance missions and the cyanide capsules for use if an operative was captured. It is a gripping account of patriotism, secrecy and sacrifice—and of hundreds of volunteers who carried the burden of a war that, thankfully, never came to Sweden.

Butterfly pea is beautiful enough to steal the show—but what if its real magic has nothing to do with its color?In this episode, I'm joined by Clarenda Stanley (aka Farmer Cee), who completely changed the way I think about butterfly pea flower (Clitoria ternatea).I'll admit that before this conversation, I mostly thought of butterfly pea as the plant that turns your tea an incredible cobalt blue. But Cee makes a compelling case for looking beyond the color. She shares why she loves butterfly pea for mood support, nourishment, and as a surprisingly versatile ally during the transitions of perimenopause and menopause. We also talk about its role as a nitrogen-fixing plant, its beautiful relationship with bees, and so many delicious ways to enjoy those vibrant flowers.During our conversation, Cee also takes us inside Green Heffa Farms and her philosophy of boutique farming, where quality, sustainability, and the well-being of the farmer come first. Along the way, she offers a fresh perspective on what it means to be an herbalist—and to build a life that sustains rather than drains.Cee shares her recipe for Herbal Cool Aid, a refreshing, vibrant blend of butterfly pea flower along with other cooling herbs. You can download your beautifully illustrated recipe card here.By the end of this episode, you'll know:► Three reasons butterfly pea can be so helpful during perimenopause► How to include butterfly pea in your diet—from teas to syrups to the most gorgeous ice cubes, and more!► What makes butterfly pea such a wonderful plant for the garden► Why Clarenda believes that herbal remedies should be beautiful and delicious (not just functional!)► Tips for running a thriving herbal business► And so much more…For those of you who don't know her, Clarenda “Farmer Cee” Stanley is the founder and CEO of Green Heffa Farms, a regenerative farm and natural wellness brand based in Liberty, North Carolina.

Raised on a farm surrounded by multiple generations of family, including his farmer grandfather, Drew Baldridge learned early that hard work, grit, and persistence matter. When Nashville wouldn’t book him or sign him, he created his own path—playing backyard concerts and building his fanbase from the ground up. That farmer mentality took him from backyard shows to chart-topping success and tours with Jelly Roll and Luke Bryan. Now a husband and father of two, Drew is celebrating the values that shaped him with his new album, Farm Faith Family.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
