    North American Ag Spotlight
    The Maturing Ag Tech Landscape: Practical, Profitable, Proven

    North American Ag Spotlight

    Season 5: Episode 211As the ag tech sector matures, the industry is finally shifting its focus from flashy innovations to solving real problems on the ground. In this episode of North American Ag Spotlight, Chrissy Wozniak explores how the ag tech space is becoming more practical, profitable, and proven — especially when it comes to addressing the core issue that keeps most farmers up at night: labor. Joining the conversation from St. Louis, Missouri is Connie Bowen, Founding Partner of Farmhand Ventures, a venture firm focused on the future of work in U.S. agriculture.Connie shares how her background — spanning from engineering to hands-on farm work in Oregon's Willamette Valley — shaped her laser focus on labor as agriculture's most pressing challenge. She discusses how investor enthusiasm surged after high-profile acquisitions like Monsanto's purchase of Climate Corp, but notes the disconnect between capital flowing into ag tech and the slow pace of on-farm adoption. That's where Farmhand Ventures comes in — helping startups build with the farmer, not just for them.Throughout the conversation, Connie breaks down what makes an idea investable in the ag space, why founders must collaborate closely with growers and farmworkers from day one, and how including the voices of those doing the work creates smarter, more successful tools. She explains that while sustainability and climate concerns may attract outside capital, these investors often fail to understand the farmer's “hair-on-fire” problems — like labor shortages and razor-thin margins — which must be addressed first.Connie also talks about mistakes she sees ag tech startups making, including overpromising, chasing the wrong markets, or designing without true farm-level feedback. She emphasizes the importance of field trials, user input, and ongoing proof, comparing startup success to a sports team that has to earn its wins every season. Looking ahead, she predicts robotics will play an increasingly critical role in specialty crops and emphasizes the need for tech to help elevate workers into higher-value roles rather than displacing them.This episode highlights a turning point in ag tech — one where the best solutions come from close collaboration, practical thinking, and a deep respect for the realities of farm work.Learn more about Connie and Farm Ventures at https://www.farmhandventures.com/#agtech #smartfarming #agricultureNorth American Ag is devoted to highlighting the people & companies in agriculture who impact our industry and help feed the world.

    Federated Farmers is calling on Revenue Minister Simon Watts to rule out new changes to the Fringe Benefit tax that would impact utes. The IRD has proposed major changes to the way FBT applies to utes and farmers are concerned this would set them back thousands of dollars a year. Federated Farmers' transport spokesperson Mark Hooper says this issue started drawing in more attention post-Fieldays. "We've had a little bit of communication with the minister's office - as I said, we looked at it from a farm perspective, we could see that there were some issues with the categories they had laid out."

    Today on AgNet News Hour: Ryan Jacobson on Farming, Advocacy, and the Future of California Agriculture Today's episode of the AgNet News Hour features an insightful and powerful interview with Ryan Jacobson, CEO of the Fresno County Farm Bureau. With over two decades of experience advocating for Central Valley agriculture, Jacobson shares a compelling vision for the future of California farming, addressing some of the state's biggest challenges and offering hope through persistence, education, and community. Ryan sits down with host Nick “The Ag Meter” Papagni and producer Josh McGill to discuss everything from regulatory pressure and water supply issues to public perception and the next generation of farm leaders. He emphasizes how vital it is for the ag industry to continue telling its story—not just to policymakers, but to neighbors, voters, and future consumers. Jacobson's passion for farming is deeply personal, rooted in his family's history and his own upbringing in the Valley. He reflects on how sports, discipline, and hard work shaped his approach to leadership, and he draws connections between youth athletics and the work ethic found in farm communities. Listeners will also hear Jacobson's thoughts on food security, the challenges posed by environmental regulations, and the Farm Bureau's evolving role in representing growers and ranchers across the region. He calls on all members of the ag community—from farmers to ag students—to speak out, post on social media, and share their everyday experiences to build broader understanding and support. As Jacobson says, “If you're not at the table, you're on the menu.” It's a critical reminder that advocacy, education, and unity are essential to keeping California agriculture strong for future generations.

    Padraig McCormack, dairy advisor at Teagasc Moorepark, joins Stuart Childs on this week's Dairy Edge to discuss what's currently happening on the farms in his area. Padraig outlines the grazing situation in the area which is beginning to get back on track followed a prolonged spell of dry weather a month ago. Quality has been variable but people are looking at removing surplus in the coming week as growth is exceeding demand on average. Padraig spoke about fertiliser advice from nitrogen rates to sulphur and also P and K where surplus is removed.  Padraig discussed breeding performance in his area which is looking good and he reminded listeners to plan a date to stop breeding prior to July 20th with it being the cut off to avoid May calvers in 2026.  From his profit monitor meetings in the spring of 25, the justification for calving a cow in May is non-existent given the cost of keeping the cow and the return she will generate in her 2025 lactation. Padraig then tells us about the investments that his clients are considering with slurry storage on some people's minds but clarity around storage requirements and planning is slowing movement in that area.  Investing in things to make life easier is where it is at with people looking to avail of grants on heat detection systems, drafting gates and calf feeders.    Finally, Padraig ends by telling us that currently, his groups are either planning or heading away on some visits away from their own farms. He suggests that people should plan to take holidays and plan to get a few days off when things quieten down once breeding is finished and he reminds listeners of the excellent day out that is the Moorepark Open day coming up on July 2nd.   For more episodes from the Dairy Edge podcast go to the show page at:https://www.teagasc.ie/animals/dairy/the-dairy-edge-podcast/ The Dairy Edge is a co-production with LastCastMedia.com

    Estate-grown barley, hops, and fruit are the engines that power the beers at Macallen Farm and Brewery (https://www.facebook.com/p/Macallen-Ferme-et-Brasserie-100046434972035/), and multigenerational farmer (and brewery founder) Ryan Allen embraces agriculture as a creative tool in his brewing process. Whether it's heirloom barley varieties grown in intentional ways to optimize flavor profiles, or it's Cascade hops that he lets hang for extra weeks to develop deeper fruit notes, there are few variables that he's not willing to test and push in pursuit of the perfect flavor and aroma. In this episode, Allen discusses: growing heirloom barley for taste before yield choosing beer styles for different barley varieties and harvest conditions brewing test batches of every recipe, each year, to adjust recipes to the new crop weather impact on growth and flavor in barley controlling for pests through methods such as crop rotation adjusting water profiles to complement year-to-year barley flavor changes malting in-house for an additional layer of control choosing when to pick C-hops to optimize citrus and mango flavors varying the pick times for a single hop variety to achieve different expressions managing dry whole-cone hops in the brewhouse growing and processing estate-grown fruit for beer juicing the fruit, then using the skins for color adjustment And more.

    This is a Vintage Selection from 2006The BanterThe Guys talk about premium products and how much is too much to pay. From wild salmon to select chocolate, everyone has their spending limit…and The Guys wish theirs was a little higher. The ConversationThe Restaurant Guys meet Farmer John Peterson to hear about the documentary The Real Dirt on Farmer John. John shares his story of suffering financial and emotional hardship to creating Angel Organics, one of the largest Community Supported Agriculture farms in the US.The Inside TrackThe Guys were eager to talk to John after seeing the documentary. John equates modern farms turning organic to people finding sobriety.“When it's going from a chemical based system to a natural system, it has to be repopulated by the microorganisms. Maybe it's a little like someone going into an addiction clinic and then going from a dependent life to a healthy life. We were raising very unhealthy crops that the insects were invading. It took a long time to figure out how to build things up and how to get the soil healthy,” Farmer John Peterson on The Restaurant Guys 2006BioJohn Peterson was raised on his family's farm in Illinois. The financial calamity for the farming community hit the Peterson farm in the 1980s nearly closing the farm for good. John decided to rebuild using sustainable farming practices rather than the modern chemical-reliant approach. In 1991, Angel Organics was born. They opted for a Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) model which continued until spring of 2025. Unfortunately, farming halted due to Farmer John having a stroke.  InfoThe Real Dirt on Farmer John documentaryhttps://www.filmsforaction.org/watch/the-real-dirt-on-farmer-john-2005/InfoLocal Harvest (find CSA near you)www.localharvest.org/On Friday, June 27 Come see The Restaurant Guys LIVE with Chef Andrew Zimmern at the New Brunswick Performing Arts Center in New Brunswick, NJ.

    You've been told to eat clean, but what if your “healthy” foods are wrecking your gut, crushing your hormones, and aging you faster? This episode exposes the nutrient-depleted truth behind modern diets, soil erosion, and why regenerative farming might be the key to reversing chronic disease, boosting mitochondria, and rebuilding your biology from the ground up. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey sits down with Dr. Josh Axe, a trusted pioneer in functional medicine, bestselling author, and co-founder of Ancient Nutrition. Dr. Axe bridges the gap between biblical farming, ancestral nutrition, and modern science to explain how your food and even your supplements may be harming your human performance, digestion, and brain health. With clinical insights, personal stories, and science-backed tools, he shares what to eat instead if you want real longevity, energy, and healing. They dig into the collapse of soil nutrients, how monocropping damages the microbiome, and why organic food standards may be outdated. You'll learn how regenerative agriculture rebuilds the earth and your gut, and why biohacking starts with dirt, not pills. Plus, they explore the hormonal chaos caused by seed oils, plastics, blue light, sleep disruption, and even birth control, especially in relation to testosterone loss in men and women. This episode also touches on biblical nutrition, fasting cycles, natural nootropics, testosterone-supporting peptides, the dangers of synthetic vitamins, and the future of real-time self-quantification. From poop-powered farming to smarter sourcing, it's a wild ride into how food, faith, and farming affect every part of your biology. This is essential listening for anyone serious about biohacking, neurohacking, longevity, Upgrade Labs, Danger Coffee, Smarter Not Harder, and understanding the real root of disease and dysfunction. You'll Learn: • Why regenerative farming beats “organic” for health and the planet • How depleted soil is linked to hormone imbalances and chronic disease • What birth control is doing to testosterone, fertility, and mitochondrial health • Why your supplements may just be “expensive pee” • The truth about biblical farming and why dirt still matters • How to support testosterone naturally with diet, peptides, and habits • Why sleep optimization, mineral balance, and circadian alignment are key for healing Dave Asprey is a four-time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, and the father of biohacking.

    John Seabrook's new book is about a family business—not a mom-and-pop store, but a huge operation run by a ruthless patriarch. The patriarch is aging, and he cannot stand to lose his hold on power, nor let his children take over the enterprise. This might sound like the plot of HBO's drama “Succession,” but the story John tells in “The Spinach King” is about a real family: the Seabrooks, of Seabrook, New Jersey. His grandfather C.F. Seabrook built a frozen-food empire in the farmland of South Jersey, which produced one third of the nation's frozen vegetables at its height. The P.R. was about a hard-working and innovative farm family, but the business, behind the scenes, advanced with political corruption and violence against organized labor. Then C.F. destroyed his business and his family rather than cede control to his sons. John—a staff writer who has covered many subjects for The New Yorker, most notably music—talks with David Remnick about the consequences of inherited wealth, and overcoming a family legacy of suspicion and emotional abuse.

    Five centuries ago, before Spanish conquistadors arrived, what's now Mexico City was the Aztec capital of Tenochtitlan—and it took the European invaders' breath away. It was built on an island threaded with canals; it was one of the largest cities in the world; and the Spanish could hardly believe the sheer volume of food sold in the city's main market, let alone the quantity and variety of dishes enjoyed by the Aztec leader, Montezuma. But how did a city built in a lake—and located in a part of the world without cows, sheep, pigs, or chicken—grow enough to feed quarter of a million people? What does it mean to eat like an Aztec, and can you still do it today? This episode, we're time traveling (and real traveling) to find out! Join us on a trip to taste the flavors of Tenochtitlan, and explore the endangered “floating islands” that fed the city—with a menu that included insect eggs, blue-green algae, and some adorable salamanders that just might hold the secret of eternal youth.

Before joining POLITICO in November 2014, Mike was a staff writer for The Boston Globe, a national staff writer for The Washington Post and a senior national correspondent for Time magazine. He has won the George Polk Award for national reporting, the Worth Bingham Prize for investigative reporting and many other journalism honors. He is also the best-selling author of “The New New Deal: The Hidden Story of Change in the Obama Era” (Simon & Schuster, 2012) and “The Swamp: The Everglades, Florida, and the Politics of Paradise” (Simon & Schuster, 2006). Mike lives in Miami Beach with his wife, Cristina Dominguez, an attorney; their children, Max and Lina; and their Boston terriers, Candy and Cookie.
