With equipment repair costs up 40% over the past few years, how farmers deploy expensive agricultural machinery is of top concern for ag bankers. With equipment increasingly complex and often software driven, many equipment manufacturers have limited the ability of operators to repair their equipment without voiding warranties — leading to delays and lost harvests as farmers wait for service amid a shortage. While this trend has led to a “right to repair” movement in many states, the issue of equipment costs and lost revenue during breakdowns remains a factor in lending decisions, says Pat Kussman, president and CEO of Regional Missouri Bank and chairman of the Missouri Bankers Association. “There are many things that are eroding at our cash flow for our farmers,” he notes, “not just input costs, but land rent costs and equipment repair costs.” Kussman also discusses the state of the used equipment market, how farmers are using drones to manage crops less invasively and the growing role of artificial intelligence tools in functions like disease identification This episode is presented by Agri-Access.

Ever felt terrible about not showing up for something, only to discover it was the best thing that could have happened? In this thought-provoking Fail Forward Friday episode, Heather V Masters challenges our obsession with consistency and explores the radical idea that sometimes "failing" to show up is actually the universe's way of protecting and guiding us. Through two raw personal stories—a technical nightmare that led to a client breakthrough and a countryside delay that saved her from a serious accident—Heather reveals how divine timing often trumps our best-laid plans.What's Inside:Heather's vulnerable story of technical failures that felt like professional incompetence but created space for deeper client transformationThe tale of the slowest tractor in Northumberland and how it became unexpected protection from a serious road accidentWhy consistency is good, but intuition and trust in timing can be even betterThree powerful lessons about surrendering control and trusting the bigger pictureA week-long "trust experiment" to help you reframe delays and setbacksKey Takeaways:Sometimes the universe has far better timing than our carefully planned schedulesConsistency is brilliant, but learning to trust when things aren't flowing is equally importantPerfect timing isn't your timing—it's the right timing for what you truly need"Failures" to show up can actually be course corrections protecting you from harm or preparing you for something betterThe Bigger Picture:This episode arrives at a time when many people are burnt out from trying to be perfectly consistent and always "on." Heather's message offers a refreshing alternative: what if we could trust the process, even when it doesn't match our plans?This Week's Trust Experiment:When something goes "wrong" this week—delays, tech failures, cancelled plans—pause before the self-blame kicks in.

As the world's largest agricultural economy, when China makes a move, the world pays attention. China has just unveiled an ambitious plan to accelerate its development of ag machinery by shortening its research and development cycles. So will China dominate the future of agricultural machinery, and what does this mean for dealers, farmers, and agtech companies?Lachlan Monsbourgh, Global Rural Agricultural and Environmental Lead at Rabobank, joins us to discuss China's pivotal role in global agriculture. This includes China's rapidly developing ag machinery industry, which can manufacture tractors and equipment for about half the cost of the other major players in the US, Europe and Japan. While the products currently face quality, durability and serviceability challenges, Lachlan argues it is only a matter of time before these are overcome. Lachlan and Sarah discuss:The price point difference between Chinese agricultural manufacturers and other big OEMsThe impact of cheaper tractors on agtech adoption and autonomyHow China is moving to ensure sustainable supply chains from countries such as Brazil.Global biodiversity targets and the role of autonomous robotics in helping to achieve them.Useful Links:How China is reshaping Global Food Systems for the Climate Change Era, World Economic ForumTarget to accelerate agriculture machinery development, AgTechNavigatorKunming Montreal Biodiversity frameworkThe Three Categories of Autonomy in Agriculture, SwarmFarm RoboticsFor more information and resources, visit our website.

Season 5: Episode 212 In this episode of North American Ag Spotlight, Chrissy Wozniak is joined by Jaime Jerrels, Senior Director of Policy and Outreach at the Florida Farm Bureau Federation, to discuss one of the most powerful and overlooked challenges in agriculture today: farmer mental health. Florida Farm Bureau, in partnership with UF/IFAS and the Mind Your Melon Foundation, has released its first-ever statewide mental health report—and the findings are deeply personal, alarming, and a call to action.Jaime brings more than just her professional insights to the conversation. Raised on a peanut and cattle farm in Levy County and now raising five children on that same land with her husband, she speaks from the heart—both as a policy advocate and as a woman of faith. Her passion for standing in the gap for farmers who often carry the weight of the world in silence is rooted in her belief that agriculture is more than an industry—it's a mission field.The conversation goes far beyond statistics, touching on hurricanes, financial stress, isolation, and the unique burdens of rural life. Jaime shares her firm belief that faith, prayer, and community can bring healing and strength where it's needed most. She encourages struggling producers to lean on their relationship with God, seek out trusted connections, and remember that telehealth and other support tools are available—and confidential.Chrissy and Jaime also explore the critical role churches, Farm Bureau, and peer-to-peer relationships play in restoring connection and hope to those silently struggling.Learn more and view the full 2025 Mind Your Melon Farmer Wellbeing Survey at: https://www.floridafarmbureau.orgNorth American Ag is devoted to highlighting the people & companies in agriculture who impact our industry and help feed the world.

The Scottish Government is due to make a statement this week about whether Galloway is to get a new National Park - or not. Galloway, in the south west of Scotland, was chosen from five potential locations and the first round of consultation on the plan was completed earlier this year, with its report now being considered by Scottish ministers. We hear from those in favour and against.Farmers who supply wheat to Britain's biggest bioethanol plant have been told it may have to close unless the government intervenes. Bioethanol is added to the E5 and E10 petrol you see at the pumps to reduce its carbon emissions - it's made by fermenting wheat to make alcohol, with the leftovers being used for animal feed. Vivergo Fuels says it will be impossible to compete with subsidised American ethanol, after the recent trade agreement with the US promised to scrap tariffs on imports.And as tractors get bigger and faster, how safe are they on our roads?Presented by Caz Graham Produced by Heather Simons

Season 5: Episode 203In this episode of North American Ag Spotlight, host Chrissy Wozniak is joined by Rusty Rumley, Senior Staff Attorney at the National Agricultural Law Center, to explore the shifting landscape of agricultural policy under the new administration.They discuss the recent election outcomes, highlighting the Republican control of both chambers of Congress and the White House, and speculate on what this might mean for agricultural legislation, particularly the Farm Bill. Rusty provides insights into the complexities of passing a Farm Bill with a narrow majority, the potential use of the Congressional Review Act to repeal recent regulations, and the significant changes brought by the end of the Chevron deference, which could require clearer directives from Congress on policy. The conversation also delves into how budget reconciliation could impact nutrition programs in the Farm Bill, emphasizing the critical balance between SNAP benefits and agricultural support. Additionally, they touch on the ongoing debates regarding foreign ownership of U.S. farmland, with specific attention to state-level actions and potential federal policy adjustments. Rusty looks to the future with cautious optimism, suggesting that while significant changes might be limited, there could be beneficial tweaks ensuring more stability in agricultural policy. The episode wraps up with Rusty explaining the role of the National Agricultural Law Center as a neutral source of legal information for the ag community, encouraging listeners to engage with their resources.
