    The latest AgNet News Hour Podcast delivers another packed episode with Nick “The Ag Meter” Papagni and “Sir” Josh McGill, bringing listeners a wide-ranging discussion on agriculture, business, education, water policy, and crop protection. From inspiring entrepreneurship stories to the future of ag education and emerging orchard threats, this episode highlights the voices shaping agriculture across California. If you want to stay informed about the issues affecting farmers, ranchers, and the broader ag industry, this episode is one you won't want to miss. Entrepreneurship Lessons from Pappy's Seasoning The show begins with the final segment of a fascinating interview with Eddie Papulias, owner of Pappy's Choice Seasoning and Pappy Fine Foods. Papulias shares his journey from building a small family operation into a nationally recognized seasoning brand found in kitchens across the country. During the conversation with the Ag Meter, Papulias offers practical advice for entrepreneurs looking to launch their own food products. He explains that while starting a business is still possible today, the process has become much more complex due to regulations, insurance requirements, and rising operational costs. Papulias encourages new entrepreneurs to consider working with co-packers, manufacturers who produce products for emerging brands. This approach allows startups to bring family recipes or unique products to market without the heavy investment required to build their own manufacturing facility. His story highlights the perseverance required to build a successful business—and why maintaining strong family values and faith helped guide his company through decades of growth. Ag in the Classroom: Educating the Next Generation The episode also features an important conversation with Amanda Fletcher, Executive Director of the California Foundation for Agriculture in the Classroom. Fletcher discusses the organization's mission to connect students with agriculture and help them understand where their food comes from. Through curriculum resources and educational programs, the foundation now reaches approximately 1.3 million students across California each year. One of the organization's biggest upcoming initiatives is Virtual Farm Day on March 18, a live online learning event that takes students on a virtual journey through the farm-to-school process. The program will highlight produce operations, beef production, and school food service programs to show how food travels from the field to students' lunch trays. Fletcher also explains how agriculture offers a wide range of career opportunities—from technology and communications to engineering and mechanics—many of which students may not realize exist within the industry. Water History and the Central Valley Project The Ag Meter also previews an upcoming discussion with GeoffreyVanden Heuvel, who dives into the history of California water infrastructure and the development of the Central Valley Project. This massive project, launched in the early 1900s, included the construction of major dams, pumping stations, and hundreds of miles of canals designed to deliver water to California's Central Valley farms. The upcoming conversation promises a deeper look at how California's water system began and how water policy continues to impact agriculture today. Almond Growers Monitor Red Leaf Blotch The episode wraps up with Todd Burkdoll of Valent USA, who joins the “Growing Edge” segment to discuss the spread of almond red leaf blotch across the Central Valley. This fungal disease infects almond leaves during spring, causing orange-colored spots and potentially leading to significant defoliation if left untreated. Burkdoll explains that early monitoring, winter sanitation practices, and timely fungicide applications are critical for protecting orchard health. For growers across the valley, staying ahead of this disease is essential for maintaining long-term productivity. Listen to the Full AgNet News Hour Podcast From business success stories to ag education initiatives and critical crop protection updates, this episode of the AgNet News Hour brings together important conversations from across the agricultural industry. Be sure to listen to the full podcast to hear every interview with The Ag Meter and “Sir” Josh McGill, and stay informed about the issues impacting agriculture today.

    A Fresno Success Story Featured on the AgNet News Hour

    The AgNet News Hour recently featured a fascinating conversation with Fresno entrepreneur Eddie Papulias, the man behind Pappy's Choice Seasoning and Pappy's Fine Foods. In an interview with host Nick Papagni, “the Ag Meter”, Papulias shared the remarkable story of how a family legacy rooted in agriculture and meat processing evolved into a nationally recognized seasoning brand. What began as a small family effort in the Central Valley has grown into a business whose products now appear in grocery stores across California and much of the United States. Yet the story behind Pappy's success is about far more than spices and sauces—it's about perseverance, family, and navigating the increasingly complex world of food production and small business in California. A Family Legacy That Started More Than a Century Ago Papulias' story begins long before the seasoning business existed. His grandfather immigrated from Greece in 1896 and eventually settled in Fresno, where he raised sheep, lamb, and cattle in the foothills near Friant. Decades later, Papulias' father—known affectionately as “Pappy”—launched Pappy Meat Company in 1958, building a reputation for high-quality aged beef supplied to markets from San Francisco to Los Angeles. After his father passed away while Papulias was still in high school, the future of the family business became uncertain. But in the mid-1980s, Papulias decided to take a leap of faith and build something new from a seasoning recipe his father had created for meat customers. With just $30,000 in startup capital, Pappy's Fine Foods was born. Four Years of Hard Work Before Profit The early years were anything but easy. Papulias worked tirelessly while attending college, often packaging seasoning bottles late into the night with help from friends and family. Even with the support of longtime family friends who offered free rent for a year, the company took four years before turning a profit. But Papulias stayed focused on one goal: rebuilding his father's legacy. For 25 straight years, he says he never took a vacation while building the brand. Today, more than four decades later, Pappy's products are sold across the country—and Papulias still wakes up at 4:30 a.m. every day to go to work. From Seasonings to Sauces and Meat Partnerships Over time, the company expanded beyond seasoning blends to include a variety of sauces and marinades. Some of the most popular products include: Sweet and Tangy Barbecue Sauce Patty's Sweet and Spicy Buffalo Sauce Peppercorn sauce used in marinated tri-tip products A range of seasoning blends used for grilling and home cooking Papulias also partnered with Harris Ranch Beef Company, helping develop marinated meats, pot roast, stuffed bell peppers, and other prepared products sold through retail channels. One product—peppercorn tri-tip—became especially popular during a Southern California grocery strike, when Harris Ranch reportedly sold $87 million worth of the product through Smart & Final stores. Rising Costs and Challenges for Small Businesses While the brand has grown significantly, Papulias says operating a food business in California has become increasingly difficult. He pointed to several challenges affecting producers today: Rising ingredient costs, including black pepper prices increasing dramatically Packaging costs tied to oil prices Rising freight and transportation expenses Expanding regulatory requirements for food production Increased competition from private equity-owned companies Papulias also expressed concern about the regulatory burden placed on small manufacturers. In some cases, he says, companies are leaving California altogether to operate in states with fewer regulatory hurdles. Despite the challenges, Papulias remains deeply committed to the Central Valley and the agricultural community that helped build his business. A Passion for Food, Agriculture, and Family Throughout the interview, Papulias emphasized the importance of agriculture to California's economy. The San Joaquin Valley, he noted, remains one of the most productive farming regions in the world. He also highlighted the importance of maintaining strong food safety standards.
