Federal commodity program payments on many farms are still tied to base acres established in the 1985 farm bill — numbers that haven't changed in decades. New federal legislation gives landowners the opportunity to add base acres for the first time in years, and the review window is open now.Anastasia Meyer, extension agricultural economist with the Center for Agricultural Profitability at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, joins Nebraska FARMcast to explain how base acres are established, who is eligible for an increase, and what landowners and producers need to do before the window closes. She also covers how the 30-million-acre national cap works, what happens when a farm has no established program yield, and why landowners and operators should be talking to each other about this decision before opting out.More: https://cap.unl.edu/news/new-base-acres-available-qualifying-farms/

Organic land represents years of investment in soil health, certification records, and the markets that reward that work. When that land changes hands, protecting that investment requires the right lease language, the right records and conversations that start well before anyone signs. This episode features Glennis McClure, farm and ranch management analyst at the Center for Agricultural Profitability at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, and Carla McCullough Dittman, a Lancaster County landowner and advisor to the Nebraska Organic Program and the Transition to Organic Partnership Program. They walk through what it takes to keep certified organic acres organic through a land transition, from working with certifiers and documenting production history to writing lease terms that spell out compliance responsibilities and protect both parties. They also discuss what retiring organic farmers should be doing now to find the right successor and keep their land in organic production for the long term.Read more: https://cap.unl.edu/news/lease-considerations-and-communications-when-transitioning-organic-production/

Brad Lubben, extension associate professor and agricultural policy specialist at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, joins Nebraska FARMcast to discuss his latest Policy Report column for Nebraska Farmer, which breaks down what's driving the headline figure, why crop and livestock sectors are performing so differently right now, and how a surge in government payments is shaping the bottom line.Lubben also walks through what the statewide aggregate misses for individual operations, what the cash flow calendar looks like for producers waiting on ARC and PLC payments this fall, and how wildfire and drought losses since the analysis was completed could shift the picture before year's end.Read more in Brad Lubben's Policy Report Column: Cattle, Government Payments Drive Nebraska's Record Farm Income Forecast, But Crop Margins Remain TightAdditional resources:Nebraska Farm Income Outlook: Spring 2026 ReportCenter for Agricultural Profitability free financial analysis consultingRurual Response Hotline: https://farmhotline.com/ and 800-464-0258

Published by Temple University Press in 2026, The Heartland of US Empire: Race, Region, and the Queer Filipinx Midwest examines Filipinx cultural representations in the Midwest since the early twentieth century. In it, Dr. Thomas Xavier Sarmiento shrewdly considers the impact of American exceptionalism and U.S. imperialism in a region where white, middle-class, heterosexual, and Christian is the norm. He employs a queer, decolonial Filipinx methodology that traces how narratives of America's heartland position Filipinxs in the region as non-normative due to their racial, gender, sexual, and national statuses. As a result, The Heartland of US Empire locates queer Filipinxs in the geographic center of the nation and at the center of cultural narratives, thereby mapping alternative images of diasporic Filipinx identity and experience alongside U.S. regional and national identities, histories, and realities. Tom Sarmiento is an associate professor of English and Gender, Women, and Sexuality Studies at Kansas State University. He specializes in Filipinx American and queer literature and culture and teaches courses in Asian American literature, Cultural Studies, film adaptation, and Gender, Women, and Sexuality Studies. His works have appeared in MELUS: Multi-Ethnic Literature of the United States, The SAGE Encyclopedia on Filipina/o/x America Studies, Asian American Literature Discourse and Pedagogies, and in a special issue he guest edited for American Studies. In addition to his work in Literature & Cultural Studies, he is invested in helping students see writing as a nonlinear process and as a tool for social change.

For years, it was Lucy Studey-McKiddy's word against silence. She alleged her father killed dozens of women in rural Iowa. Agencies investigated, found nothing, and closed the case. Her siblings were divided. The public moved on. Now, reportedly, someone else is talking. The Paramount+ documentary My Killer Father: The Green Hollow Murders features what's described as testimony from an alleged accomplice — someone who reportedly witnessed what happened in Green Hollow and kept quiet for years. That's a significant shift. If credible, it means Lucy is no longer the sole source. The documentary is a three-part series that's the product of more than three years of investigation by director Aengus James and his production team. They reportedly spent hundreds of thousands of dollars funding private forensic work — including the exhumation and re-autopsy of Charlotte Studey, whose 1984 gunshot death in Omaha has been officially reclassified from self-inflicted to undetermined. They brought in cadaver dogs, ground-penetrating radar, and forensic anthropologists from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. And they say they found evidence that hasn't been made public until now. No human remains have been conclusively recovered. Donald Studey died in 2013. The alleged victims are still nameless. But the pressure is building. Criminal defense attorney Bob Motta, who investigated this case independently in Green Hollow, discusses the documentary, the new testimony, and whether this is finally enough to reopen the case.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

This episode features a conversation with Dr. Katie Batza on their recently published book, AIDS in the Heartland: How Unlikely Coalitions Created a Blueprint for LGBTQ Politics. Published by the University of North Carolina Press, AIDS in the Heartland demonstrates the unique collaborations of crop duster pilots, church van drivers, nuns, tribal leaders, and synagogue ladies in places such as decommissioned convents, backyard barbecues, high school gyms, and city parks that fostered loud, radical queer politics and homonormative strategies alike. As a result, Batza contends with the respectability of the heart of the nation and how it prevails as core values in national LBGTQ political strategies today. Histories of AIDS in the United States typically regard San Francisco and New York to be the epicenters of the crisis. The Midwest, if considered at all, appears as a footnote to the social, medical, and political struggles of coastal queer communities and communities of color. But the US heartland cultivated its own distinct strategies for survival that became the surprising and lasting blueprint for LGBTQ politics today. Though AIDS cases were relatively low compared to the coasts, the conservative political and religious landscape, lack of medical infrastructure, and diffuse gay communities brought Midwesterners together in unexpected ways. Unearthing this complex story, health activism expert Katie Batza masterfully illustrates the diversity, resilience, innovation, and influence of the Midwest's responses to the AIDS epidemic. Katie Batza is chair of women, gender, and sexuality studies at the University of Kansas and the author of Before AIDS: Gay Health Politics in the 1970s. Their research explores the intersection of sexuality, health, and politics in the late 20th-century United States. Donna Doan Anderson is a research assistant professor in History at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln.

This episode features a conversation with Dr. Katie Batza on their recently published book, AIDS in the Heartland: How Unlikely Coalitions Created a Blueprint for LGBTQ Politics. Published by the University of North Carolina Press, AIDS in the Heartland demonstrates the unique collaborations of crop duster pilots, church van drivers, nuns, tribal leaders, and synagogue ladies in places such as decommissioned convents, backyard barbecues, high school gyms, and city parks that fostered loud, radical queer politics and homonormative strategies alike. As a result, Batza contends with the respectability of the heart of the nation and how it prevails as core values in national LBGTQ political strategies today. Histories of AIDS in the United States typically regard San Francisco and New York to be the epicenters of the crisis. The Midwest, if considered at all, appears as a footnote to the social, medical, and political struggles of coastal queer communities and communities of color. But the US heartland cultivated its own distinct strategies for survival that became the surprising and lasting blueprint for LGBTQ politics today. Though AIDS cases were relatively low compared to the coasts, the conservative political and religious landscape, lack of medical infrastructure, and diffuse gay communities brought Midwesterners together in unexpected ways. Unearthing this complex story, health activism expert Katie Batza masterfully illustrates the diversity, resilience, innovation, and influence of the Midwest's responses to the AIDS epidemic. Katie Batza is chair of women, gender, and sexuality studies at the University of Kansas and the author of Before AIDS: Gay Health Politics in the 1970s. Their research explores the intersection of sexuality, health, and politics in the late 20th-century United States.

In the fall of 1984, I was sitting in a darkened lecture hall at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, watching slides click through a Kodak Carousel projector. Greek marble. Benin bronze. Mughal miniature. Japanese woodblock. The professor's argument was plain: these works endured because they were beautiful, and beauty was the thread that connected every person in that room to every person who had ever stood before the original object. Down the hall, in a different semester, a film professor made a different case. Beauty, he said, was larger than prettiness. The ugly, the reprehensible, the fantastic, the comic: all of these were forms of beauty because all of them enchanted and instructed. A movie theater was a secular chapel. We watch together because beauty is a collective event. Both professors were right. Both were incomplete. And the question that has taken me forty years to formulate is the question my new book, The Human Universal Beautiful, attempts to answer: if beauty connects and instructs, who controls the connection? Who writes the lesson plan?
