    Talk Dirt to Me
    China's Farmland, The National Farm Security Plan & The American Outlaw Soul

    In this week's Talk Dirt To Me, we're diving headfirst into the Big Beautiful Bill, and trust us, there's a lot hidden in those pages that every farmer in America needs to know. We break down what's happening with ARC/PLC payments, how they could hit your bottom line, and why you should care. Then we crank up the heat with the National Farm Security Action Plan. Yeah, it sounds like bureaucratic fluff, but it could change the game for who owns America's dirt. Speaking of which, just how much U.S. farmland does China own? We pull back the curtain on foreign land ownership and what that means for real American farmers busting their backs every day. We're also looking ahead at upcoming farm payments, disaster relief dollars, and the harsh reality of how far they don't go for the people who feed this nation. But we didn't stop there. We dug deep into the primal part of every man's soul: the desire to be an outlaw, a renegade, a modern-day cowboy pushing against the system. Why do men dream of breaking free from the herd? We've got some thoughts, and you won't want to miss them. And in our Made in America segment, we highlight Wilde Protein Chips, a crispy, protein-packed snack that proves American grit and good taste can go hand in hand. If you're a red-blooded farmer, rancher, or freedom-loving renegade, this episode is your rally cry. Hit play, share it with your crew, and let's keep real American agriculture alive and kicking.

    00:48 The past 35,000 years of diseaseAncient DNA evidence shows that the advent of agriculture led to more infectious disease among humans, with pathogens from animals only showing up 6,500 years ago. The DNA, extracted from human teeth, shows the history of diseases present in Eurasia over tens of thousands of years. The approach used could be a powerful way to understand how illness has shaped humanity, but it is unable to detect some bacteria that enter the bloodstream at low concentrations or some viruses, so future work could seek to fill that gap.Research Article: Sikora et al.News: Animal diseases leapt to humans when we started keeping livestock10:58 Research HighlightsDNA studies confirm that sardines were a major ingredient of the Roman Empire's favourite fish sauce, and how analysis of animal manure identified global hotspots for antibiotic-resistance genes.Research Highlight: Ancient DNA helps trace stinky Roman fish sauce to its sourceResearch Highlight: Poo of farm animals teems with drug-resistance genes13:17 Using whale poo to study toxic algae in the ArcticA 19-year experiment sampling bowhead whale faeces reveals a link between warming Arctic waters and increasing levels of toxic algae, researchers say. While climate change is expected to drive increases in the prevalence of harmful algal blooms, long-term data is lacking. To address this, a team worked with indigenous communities to collect and sample whale poo, showing that increases in algal toxins in the Arctic food chain are linked to rising ocean temperatures. The researchers suggest levels of these toxins need to be closely monitored to protect Arctic communities that depend on marine resources for food.Research Article: Lefebvre et al.24:06 Briefing ChatAn object from beyond our solar system has been spotted zipping past Jupiter, and evidence that Neanderthals created ‘fat factories' to extract vital nutrients from animal bones.Nature: Neanderthals boiled bones in ‘fat factories' to enrich their lean dietNature: Rare find: interstellar visitor seen blazing through our Solar SystemSubscribe to Nature Briefing, an unmissable daily round-up of science news, opinion and analysis free in your inbox every weekday.

    Chris Hoffman never set out to become a farmer. He dreamed of a career in law enforcement—until a job on a pig farm at 19 changed the trajectory of his life. Today, he runs one of Pennsylvania's largest hog and poultry operations and serves as president of the Pennsylvania Farm Bureau. In this episode, Chris shares how he built his farm from the ground up, what it takes to run a 24/7 agricultural business, and why many Americans don't realize how much red tape stands between farmers and the food on our tables. From navigating increasingly complex regulations to fighting against estate taxes that threaten generational farms, Chris opens up about the real-world consequences of government overreach. He explains how misguided policies increase costs for farmers and consumers alike—and why defending freedom means standing up for those who feed the nation. This is a candid, behind-the-scenes look at modern farming, and a powerful story of resilience, leadership, and the fight to preserve opportunity for the next generation.

It's a respectful challenge that sparks a lively conversation about how far agriculture has come, and where it might be going next. Of course, it wouldn't be Logan and Bobby Lee without some real-world laughs, so they swap stories about the never-ending circus that is Facebook Marketplace and how “dealing with people” online always keeps them humble (and entertained). Then they tackle the hot topic of Senator Mike Lee's public land sell-off proposal. Should public land stay in public hands?

    As France heats up, an experiment simulating life in 50C aims to get people to take climate change more seriously. Faced with a growing demand for eggs, France looks for ways to boost homegrown production and halt the need for imports. And a look back at the first line of the Paris metro, which opened in 1900. France just experienced its hottest June since 2003, with several days of extreme heat at the end of the month that left two people dead and slowed the country down – halting work outdoors and closing schools. The heatwave is a taste of what the future might hold, as global warming leads to more extreme weather conditions. The Human Adaptation Institute has created an immersive experience of what life at 50C would be like. Jeanne Richard reports from the mobile lab as it tours France to raise awareness over the need to mitigate and adapt to climate change, one hot individual at a time. (Listen @0') France is Europe's largest egg producer, yet it's struggling to meet growing demand from people looking for a cheap source of protein. Eggs are now being imported from Ukraine where environmental, health and animal welfare norms are far lower. Alice Richard, head of the National Egg Promotion Committee (CNPO), talks about the need to increase home-grown production and make it easier for farmers to start or expand their farms. Cyril Ernst, campaign manager with Anima, whose mission is to put an end to laying hens in cages, insists any easing of regulations for new farms mustn't be at the expense of animal welfare. (Listen @16'45'') The first line of the Paris metro opened on 19 July 1900, after decades of wrangling between the capital and the state slowed down its development. Today the metro system is 245kms long, with 16 lines covering the entire city and beyond.

    AgNet News Hour: Water, Land, and a Fight for the Future of Farming in California On today's AgNet News Hour, Nick “The Ag Meter” Papagni and Josh McGill deliver a critical and candid conversation with Imperial Valley farmer Andrew Leimgruber —shedding light on the daily battles California growers face just to stay in business. From water rights to foreign land ownership, today's episode is a must-listen for anyone who cares about the future of American agriculture. Leimgruber, a fourth-generation alfalfa and vegetable grower near El Centro, doesn't hold back. He discusses how water cutbacks, state regulations, and rising costs are putting unprecedented strain on farmers. Despite receiving just two inches of rain per year, Leimgruber has reduced water usage by up to 30% while maintaining yields—proving that farmers, not lawmakers, are leading on sustainability. But there's only so much innovation can do without policy support. Leimgruber warns that state leadership continues to ignore ag's economic role, while embracing short-sighted energy policies and approving solar development on prime farmland. He also raises alarms about the Chinese government buying U.S. farmland near sensitive military sites—calling it both a food security and national security issue. The show also explores the ripple effects of the closing Spreckels Sugar factory, which could impact 28,000 acres of crops and hundreds of jobs in Imperial County. Leimgruber outlines how losing such crop diversity could weaken the region's ag economy and make farmers more vulnerable to price volatility. Nick and Josh underscore a recurring theme: food security is national security. As cities expand and water politics become more divisive, the need to protect and prioritize California farmland has never been greater. Don't miss this important episode—where real farmers speak hard truths about policy, production, and perseverance.

    The role of buffers and alkalizers to improve rumen function and animal performance with Dr. Alex Bach, ICREA - Spain; Dr. Jonas De Souza, Perdue AgriBusiness and Maimie French, Kite Consulting

    This episode was recorded at the 2025 Florida Ruminant Nutrition Symposium. Dr. Bach gives an overview of his presentation, highlighting that buffers make the rumen resistant to a decrease in pH while alkalizers immediately increase rumen pH. He prefers magnesium oxide, an alkalizer, over sodium bicarbonate, a buffer. Both are effective, but sodium bicarbonate requires a larger amount, thus taking up more room in the diet. The magnesium oxide must be of high quality and soluble in the rumen. (3:40)Dr. Richards asks if we should use magnesium oxide more as a first line of defense against acidosis. Dr. Bach notes that the very best strategy is to avoid using either additive by making a proper ration balanced in terms of amount and rate of degradation of starch. But there are many constraints in the field, so he recommends using magnesium oxide before sodium bicarbonate. For the magnesium oxide to be effective, it must be solubilized in the rumen to magnesium hydroxide, and solubility can be tested in a variety of ways to determine quality. (7:35)The panel discusses the impact of magnesium oxide in place of sodium bicarbonate on DCAD and which DCAD equation(s) should be used for calculations. Dr. Bach recommends removing sodium bicarbonate from rations containing less than 1% of the ingredient. It will have little effect on the rumen, but make room in the ration. The panel explores how this can impact farm-level economics. (12:39)Dr. Bach also mentions probiotics and their impact on rumen function. In vitro studies have shown a wide variety of modes of action and positive results. Extrapolating in vitro doses to the cow often results in unsustainable amounts of the additive needing to be fed. Applied studies at the cow level have yielded inconsistent results. (23:29)Scott asks how long Dr. Bach has been making the case for pulling sodium bicarbonate out and putting magnesium oxide in, and what kind of pushback he has received. Dr. Bach gives some of the reasons farmers have given for not wanting to make this management change. He also notes that farmers who do make the switch do not tend to go back to sodium bicarbonate. (25:18)Dr. Bach and Maimie discuss grass silage diets and grazing diets with high amounts of moisture and how best to combat acidosis symptoms with those. In diets like this, where you're not trying to make room for energy, sodium bicarbonate can be a good choice. Dr. Richards chimes in with questions about the ratio of the two ingredients; Dr. Bach indicates the ratio doesn't mean much to him. (26:16)Panelists share their take-home thoughts.
