We're closing out the guest line-up with a heavy hitter. Our final guest of the season is Drew Greco of Greenstar Consulting, one of the top cannabis grow consultants in Las Vegas, and a familiar name if you've been following the Budeez journey. Drew joins us to talk about what it really takes to grow elite cannabis in the desert—dialing in genetics, navigating the Vegas market, and building consistent quality from the soil up.He didn't come empty-handed either—bringing five different strains, all grown by him and his team, which we break down as our Strains of the Day while sampling our way through the interview.It's part grower science, part Vegas cannabis history, and part classic Stoner Budeez session—ending the season the only way that makes sense: learning something real while getting a little higher along the way.

One of New Zealand's major apple growers, Hawke's Bay's "Yummy Fruit", has stopped shipping to the U-S as a result to President Trump's tariffs. The 15 percent tariff essentially cancelled out their margins, so some growers are shifting their focus to the Asia market ahead of a what's looking like a bumper harvest. Jesse is joined by Danielle Adsett the Market access manager from New Zealand Apples and Pears.

Blueberry production in Washington state continues to climb with 2025 coming in close to, if not equal, to last year's record crop of 210 million pounds.

The agricultural industry faces unprecedented challenges, from shifting commodity markets to labor shortages and automation. In a recent AgNet News Hour interview, Nick Foglio of Foglio Commodities shared timely insights into hay markets, wine trends, raisin and nut production, and what California growers must do to stay competitive. Hay and Dairy Market Trends Foglio opened with a look at the 2025 hay market, where soft commodity prices and oversupply have shaped the season. Favorable canola and soybean meal pricing allowed dairies to supplement feed at reduced costs, while wet winters added cheaper dry-land feed, softening the market further. The first half of the year saw resistance due to imported hay inventory, but the second half required price corrections and higher volume movement. One bright spot was dry cow alfalfa, which outperformed 2024 thanks to less low-quality weed hay available. With milk prices softening and exportable inventory staying in-state, Folio expects continued pressure on hay pricing going into winter. Wine Market Shifts Alcohol consumption continues to decline, particularly among older drinkers and younger consumers who are increasingly health-focused or shifting toward cannabis alternatives. Foglio sees single-serve packaging as a strong opportunity for drawing new wine consumers by reducing the commitment of a full bottle. His advice for new wine drinkers: Choose California wines for quality and local support Explore flavors to identify their preferred white or red Visit local wineries for tasting and education For the wine market to grow, Foglio says the industry must shed its elitist reputation and present wine as casual, accessible, and versatile for everyday dining and gatherings. Raisins, Almonds, and Pistachios: Vertical Integration Required Discussing raisins and permanent crops, Foglio stresses that the future belongs to vertically integrated operations. Modern, profitable raisin production now requires: Growing one's own fruit Owning and maintaining equipment Controlling storage and processing Managing direct-to-retail sales Without this structure, staying competitive becomes difficult. Foglio highlights Sun-Maid and National Raisin as examples of operations thriving through innovation and strong marketing. Almonds and pistachios remain profitable markets, but Foglio warns that overplanting could soften pricing. Growers must carefully assess whether to maintain current orchards, replant, or diversify into alternative crops based on return-on-investment outlooks. Labor, Automation, and Rising Costs Labor remains a top pressure point. With California's minimum wage increasing, more farms are turning to automation and mechanization. But Folio warns that growers must evaluate ROI carefully: expensive tech with a short lifespan—much like wind turbine investments—may not justify its cost. Growers must make immediate, ROI-positive decisions, balancing labor shortages with the need for efficiency and long-term operational sustainability. Managing Change in Agriculture Foglio's closing message is clear: agriculture is at a crossroads. Success in today's environment requires: Flexible sourcing and pricing in soft hay markets More approachable marketing to grow the wine industry Strong vertical integration for raisins, almonds, and pistachios Careful, ROI-driven adoption of automation Growers who adapt, innovate, and invest wisely will be best positioned to meet the evolving challenges of California agriculture.

President Trump announced a $12 billion bailout for farmers in response to the effects of his tariffs, but it leaves out most small-scale fruit and vegetable producers. Plus, a new cohousing community is coming to Santa Cruz.

Growers are turning to AI for vineyard advice — but what happens when the algorithms get it wrong? In this episode, Fritz sits down with Texas A&M Extension Viticulture Specialist Dr. Justin Scheiner to put artificial intelligence to the test and reveal where it helps…and where it falls flat. Fritz and Justin walk through real vineyard questions — on pruning cuts, choosing between cane and spur pruning, designing an effective spray program, and diagnosing puzzling leaf symptoms — then grade the answers provided by AI tools like ChatGPT and Copilot. Justin explains why, despite its convenience, AI can't replace Extension or experienced viticulture support. He breaks down how human experts interpret nuance, adapt recommendations to site-specific realities, and help growers navigate complex issues like fungicide resistance and disease pressure — areas where AI often oversimplifies to a fault. Listeners will come away with a grounded perspective on how to responsibly use AI in vineyard decision-making: as a tool for learning, not a blueprint for management. Justin also shares updates on forward-facing research at Texas A&M, including irrigation strategies powered by sensors and machine learning, and new work aimed at improving winery efficiency. In this episode, you will hear: AI can provide helpful general information — but often misses context critical for vineyard decisions. Pruning advice from AI may be incomplete or incorrect; human expertise is still essential. Spray program recommendations from AI can be risky without resistance management and site-specific strategy. Leaf symptom diagnosis requires more than a photo — pattern, vine history, and testing matter.

On Monday, Dec. 8, the Trump Administration announced a new economic aid package for U.S. farmers that provided little meaningful relief for specialty crop growers. In this D.C. update, NPC CEO Kam Quarles joins us to discuss the Specialty Crop Farm Bill Alliance's (SCFBA) reaction to the disappointing news.Quarles explains why the package's primary focus on crop producers impacted by tariffs ignores the full scope of the economic crisis facing growers of potatoes, fruits, vegetables, and other specialty crops. He shares the SCFBA's stance on the package and urges the Administration and Congress to move beyond this limited proposal by taking swift action to advance a much larger, meaningful assistance package for all impacted farmers.

Soybean growers are still anxious about international trade, especially with China. Bob Bosold finds out what the path forward looks like from the president of the American Soybean Association, Caleb Ragland. Ragland says they're optimistic that the Trump Administration will continue to pressure China to live up to its agreements. He also makes the point that American farmers are only looking to work on a level playing field with other farmers around the world. Lots of clouds to start off your work week. Stu Muck says that there's another Alberta clipper targeting Wisconsin later this week that will bring much lower temperatures, and maybe some snow, back to the state starting as soon as Tuesday.

It's that time of year when things are slowing down, and we make time to be grateful. Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners are a great opportunity to remind everyone that every dish we enjoy is there because of someone's hard work. So in that spirit, we wanted to use this episode of the FARMSMART Podcast as a “Celebration of Growers” by looking back on some of the conversations we've had with farmers who spend every day working to leave the world in better shape than they found it. Justin Place tells us about finding new ways to improve his operation in Idaho by staying engaged with his local and national commodity groups. Janette Veazey-Post is putting some cool technology to work on 13,000 acres in New York and Ohio. And Iowa's Bill Northey went to work for the USDA as undersecretary for farm production and conservation, but recently passed away. We'll look back at his career and his advice for growers. Each of our guests has a story that you can learn from. And this season, as always, we're grateful to them... and everyone else who makes a living with their hands in the dirt.

Wool growers are being warned their produce will be untestable from January, unless they comply with new property identification code rules.

Unless something changes, Mitch McConnell killed Kentucky's hemp industry.Under a last-minute rider he slipped into the continuing resolution, 97.5–100% of the hemp currently being grown in Kentucky could be declared illegal by the federal government—not just in the Bluegrass State, but nationwide.Growers would be forced to switch overnight to a genetically modified hemp strain that may not even exist yet— if the new language is interpreted to cover living plants and not just finished products. Even if such a miracle seed magically appears, 97.5% of Kentucky's existing crop is grown for CBD flower and other products that McConnell's amendment would explicitly outlaw.Katie Moyer—current treasurer and former president of the Kentucky Hemp Association, and owner of Kentucky Hemp Works—joins the show to explain:- Where the industry was just months ago.- How it's been gutted in a single stroke.- Why Mitch McConnell, once celebrated as the “father of hemp,” just drove the final nail into its coffin.

Luisa Ponzi (wine grower, wine maker, vineyard lover, business owner, mama) says she's not quite sure what her "role" is these days - but it certainly has to do with wine. She says her role in the Oregon wine industry has shifted somewhat and it's done so in a natural way - where the winery used to be her key focus, she says she's now finding the vineyard is where she's pouring a lot of her heart and soul into. The Ponzi family moved from Southern California years ago to the Willamette Valley to start a vineyard, make wine, live off the land and Luisa has fond memories of being in the vines, playing in the dirt and helping Dad. Winemaking was not on her radar, but after she graduated college, Dad invited her to help with harvest (100% intentional on his part) and she says everything just clicked. She made tremendous strides in the Oregon wine industry and when she talks about winemaking, specifically, the vines her family planted years ago which are still producing grapes, you can almost feel her passion for this role she clearly loves so much. Be on the lookout for her label, "Luisa Wines" coming out spring 2026 and the collab she's currently doing with her daughter, Mia - "Drink Lerzi"!

Regulations, Water Challenges, and the 2026 Outlook: Roger Isom on the AgNet News Hour In this Thursday edition of the AgNet News Hour, Nick Papagni and Lorrie Boyer sit down with Roger Isom, a leading voice in California agriculture. The conversation covers critical challenges and opportunities for growers, including regulatory pressures, water scarcity, rising energy costs, and strategies for advocacy heading into 2026. Advocacy and Grassroots Engagement Active participation in agriculture advocacy is essential. Growers and farm suppliers are encouraged to engage with legislators and county supervisors. Joining industry organizations strengthens collective influence: Western Tree Nut Association (WTNA): wtna.org California Cotton Ginners and Growers Association (CCGGA): ccgga.org 2026 is an election year—growers need to be heard in policy and voting decisions. Regulatory Challenges Rodenticide restrictions: Proposed DPR rules may limit usage, affecting food safety and crop protection. Sustainable pest management: Phase-out of priority pesticides by 2050 raises concerns about balanced advisory representation. Automation hurdles: Driverless tractors face restrictions under OSHA rules, despite driverless cars operating freely. Increasing paperwork burdens take time away from actual farming. Water, Energy, and Affordability Pressures Groundwater restrictions are enforced ahead of SGMA 2040 benchmarks. Funding gaps prevent critical infrastructure development for water conveyance and storage. Rising PG&E rates threaten farm operations: Proposed 27% electricity hike California agricultural rates up to 3x higher than Texas Solar payback periods under NEM 3.0 now nearly 20 years. The Future of California Agriculture Population loss and migration of growers to states like Texas and Idaho. Regulatory and energy burdens threaten long-term agricultural viability. Advocacy, voter engagement, and unified industry action are critical to protecting California agriculture. Wine Industry Insights Younger generations are drinking less wine due to cost, health, lifestyle, and cannabis alternatives. Wine marketing must emphasize storytelling, tasting experiences, and approachable options. Sampling and education about varietals, winemakers, and history can grow consumer appreciation. In today's episode of the AgNet News Hour, host Nick Papagni (The Ag Meter) and co-host Lorrie Boyer wrapped up a lively discussion on the changing landscape of wine consumption and what the wine industry can do to engage new generations of drinkers. Younger Consumers: Price, Health, and Lifestyle Drive Decisions Lorrie explained that younger adults are drinking less wine for several reasons—cost being a major factor. Many prioritize health, career, or school, while others prefer non-alcoholic beverages now trending in breweries and restaurants. She noted that wineries may need to expand into non-alcoholic options, just as beer companies have. Experience Over Alcohol: What Today's Drinkers Want Nick and Lorrie agreed that modern consumers focus more on experiences than alcohol volume. Craft cocktails, tasting-room visits, and curated beverage moments continue to capture interest. At the same time, the overwhelming number of wine choices can intimidate new drinkers, especially when bottle prices are high. The Value of Tasting and Storytelling Lorrie shared her personal love for wine tasting—trying small pours, exploring Cabernet and Zinfandel, and discovering new favorites based on food, mood, and weather. She emphasized that winery visits are about more than wine: Meeting the winemaker Learning the history Hearing the story behind each bottle Nick added that “every bottle has a story,” underscoring why wine remains a unique and powerful part of agriculture. Wrapping Up Nick and Lorrie closed the episode with excitement for upcoming holiday-themed content and encouraged listeners to return tomorrow for more ag news, insights, and seasonal fun. Listeners can find additional information, connect on social media, and subscribe to podcasts through AgNetWest.com.
