A recent study by Purdue University, in partnership with the United Soybean Board, shows no statistically significant relationship between increased use of soybean oil in biofuel production and retail food prices for consumers. Over the past decade, the amount of soybean oil used in biofuel production has quadrupled. Until recently, though, retail prices for soybean oil – an ingredient for margarine, cooking oils, and salad dressings – have remained stagnant. In this episode of Fueling Conversations Jayson Lusk, distinguished professor and head of agricultural economics at Purdue University and director of its Center for Food Demand Analysis and Sustainability, discusses creating an economic model to identify the effects of shifts in demand for soybean oil in biofuels on food prices.Visit ag.purdue.edu/cfdas/ or cleanfuels.org for more information.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Last year, the federal government invested nearly $120 billion to combat food insecurity with its Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), but the challenge still remains. As AgriNovus works to inspire innovation in food security through a new category of agtech we call HungerTech, it's important to understand the scope of food insecurity in America and how we can improve. Today we are joined by Head of Economics at Purdue University and Distinguished Professor, Dr. Jayson Lusk, to discuss new research from AgriNovus that examines factors driving food insecurity across Indiana and areas ripe for private-sector innovation to increase proper access to nutrition.   Read the full report here.

When it comes to a sustainable food system, we ask if consumers should be in the spotlight – alongside the more common focus on corporates and governments. Can consumers make an environmental impact by changing their habits; what should those new habits look like; and what's the data behind the claims?

As the U.S. economy pulls out of a pandemic-induced recession, the specter of inflation has reared its head. Wednesday the Federal Reserve hiked its expectations for inflation this year and signaled that it would move up the timetable for raising interest rates. All of this has great implications for the livestock and animal feed sectors, from the increased cost of inputs and materials to an increased cost of capital.Last week at World Pork Expo in Des Moines, Iowa, we sat down with Jayson Lusk, a distinguished professor and Head of the Department of Agricultural Economics at Purdue University, to get an economist's take on how worrisome inflation is to the industry at this point.

Pork and beef packing plant shutdowns along with reductions in demand from the hotel, restaurant, and institutional sector have disrupted U.S. meat and livestock markets. Purdue ag economists Jayson Lusk and James Mintert review the resulting dramatic shifts in pork and beef production along with the impact these shifts have had on U.S. wholesale beef and pork prices as well as prices for cattle and hogs. Charts are available at https://purdue.ag/2YdlbEF.

There seems to be increasing criticism and negative publicity around meat production despite the fact that we have much fewer cattle in the U.S. today than in the past, and therefore the carbon footprint is smaller than before. With increasing concerns about climate change and the fact that cattle are ruminant animals which produce methane, the challenge is putting that into context with other important considerations for people and the planet overall.   Tune in to this episode to learn about: The benefits of cattle on the land - from production to making other foods more sustainable to ensuring we have a sustainable source of protein The “what ifs” of not eating beef – what would happen to the cattle, to the land, to the food waste that cattle consume and upcycle? What are consumer perceptions, attitudes and behaviors when it comes to sustainability, food technology and choices in the supermarket? Today's guests are Dr. Jennie Hodgen, a meat scientist with Merck Animal Health and Dr. Jayson Lusk, a food and agricultural economist with Purdue University.

Fancy shoes and cheap prices. Chicken breasts and hormone myths. Food snobbery and the hungry. Healthy food and fat.  Cheap food and sustainability. “It’s really easy for us to look at a product that has a fancy name or claim and assign higher perceived value to it." Dr. Jayson Lusk is a distinguished professor and head of the Agricultural Economics Department at Purdue University. He studies what we eat and why we eat it, and the economics around food decisions. In today’s Food Bullying podcast, he offers insight on how claims, policies, and misperceptions can cost us all. Key points How labels change how we feel about a product and how we are willing to pay more for perceived value. What does an agricultural economist do? Food prices, farm production, international trade, supply and demand. We want to buy more than we can afford: what perceptions and factors explain what is on our plate Large chicken breasts, animal welfare and how prices are affected by regulations put in place. Slow growth or heritage breed chicken grow a lot slower, have negative environmental and cost consequences. The unintended consequence of food choices: how the things we can afford change as our income grows. The people that bear the brunt of food price policies are the lowest income consumers. Shopping with your wallet will help support lower prices for everybody. Consumers say they will do one thing and then shop entirely differently. If you make people make trade-offs you can little closer to the truth in studies with consumer groups. Perceptions around healthy food. FDA regulates the healthy claim, which has a lot to do with fat content. Does healthy or natural really mean what you think it does?  How the brain processes information about food and controversial food issues, such as cloned cows and cage-free eggs. Brain activation can predict what people are likely to choose in buying food. Decision making around food is not just emotional or rational – it’s both. Tips to overcome food bullying: price is a perfectly legitimate guide in shopping for food, pay attention to the sources of information, and don’t fear your food. Fabulous quotes “It’s really easy for us to look at a product that has a fancy name or claim and assign higher perceived value to it. “ “Let information empower and don’t be fearful of your food.” “It’s illegal to use growth hormones in broiler chickens.” “As our incomes grow, we see people eating differently than us. There’s maybe a little bit of snobbery…” “The motivation for some of these new policies are ‘people aren’t eating correctly or right.’ We forget that people have a lower income have an entirely different set of preferences.” “It’s O.K. to use price as a guide to shopping for food.” “By in large, info coming out from FDA, USDA and PhD scientists is more trustworthy.” “There’s a lot of guilt that gets tied up in what we eat. Let information empower you to not fear your food.” Links Blog: JaysonLusk.com Food Bullying: How to Avoid Buying BS by Michele Payn Embrace Your Heart with Eliz Greene Food Bullying Podcast’s Facebook page
