The Ag-Net News Hour Hosts, Lorrie Boyer and Nick Papagni, “The Ag Meter,“ discussed recent trade developments, highlighting a significant reduction in tariffs on Chinese goods from 145% to 30%. The US and China are negotiating a 90-day truce, with potential for a more permanent deal. The phase one trade deal with China, which included billions in agricultural purchases, is being revisited. The US has closed its border to Mexican cattle, bison, and horses due to the New World screw worm, a decision supported by the National Cattlemen's Beef Association. The hosts also touched on the US-Ukraine deal and the potential for in-person talks between Zelensky and Putin   Mike Strands, Vice President of Advocacy at the National Farmers Union, discussed the Trump administration's new trade deal with the UK, focusing on market access for U.S. beef and ethanol. He highlighted Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins' aggressive travel schedule to promote trade deals with various countries. Strands emphasized the urgency of passing a new Farm Bill due to rising input costs and trade tensions, noting that 100 Farmers Union members lobbied Congress. He also addressed potential USDA budget cuts, which could impact farm safety nets and conservation programs, and the impact of recent employee buyouts on USDA staffing levels. Aaron Kendall, Director of Sporting Advocacy at the National Wildlife Federation, discussed the potential sale of public lands for affordable housing. He highlighted that the Federal Land Policy Management Act allows the sale of up to 2,500 acres of BLM lands, but proposed sales would divert revenue to the treasury rather than improving land management. Kendall argued against the proposal, citing economic and logistical challenges, including infrastructure costs and emergency services. He emphasized the importance of public lands for recreation and local economies, noting that grazing permits on federal lands are significantly cheaper than on state or private lands. Kendall urged listeners to contact their representatives to protect public lands.

Minerals like lithium, cobalt and rare earth are not just commodities. They are strategic assets which are shaping global power and the future of the energy transition.As US-China trade tensions escalate, countries across Africa (and elsewhere) where these minerals are found are now renegotiating their role in an increasingly fragmented global economy.This episode asks how Africa's mineral wealth can truly benefit its people and future generations. Guests discuss the challenges countries face in adding value domestically, and whether there's an opportunity to push for a more equitable, sustainable governance of the mineral supply chain.Drawing on the latest developments in the South China sea, Greenland and the new US-Ukraine minerals deal, we also hear how resource scarcity, trade, and geopolitical and economic interests are closely intertwined today against a backdrop of ongoing violence and instability.GuestsSara Pantuliano (host), Chief Executive, ODI GlobalAkim Daouda, Founder and CEO, Mwaana Inc.Rebecca Nadin, Director, Global Risks and Resilience team, ODI GlobalSilas Olan'g, Africa Energy Transition Advisor, Natural Resource Governance InstituteRelated resourcesThe critical minerals race to net zero (Event recording, ODI Global)Critical minerals, critical moment: Africa's role in the AI revolution (Insight, ODI Global)The ‘strategic mirage' of Africa's green minerals wealth (Insight, ODI Global)Why China is seeking greater presence in Africa – the strategy behind its financial deals (Insight, ODI Global)

The US-Ukraine minerals deal is done but a Russia-Ukraine peace deal is seemingly out of reach. Now the US is looking to scale back its involvement in mediating an end to the conflict. So what's next for the war in Ukraine? In this episode, GPF Chairman George Friedman considers how the fighting might end, why Vladimir Putin might be running out of room, and why Eastern Europe is now the pivot point for European defense.

Ukraine and the US have reached a long-awaited agreement on a deal over American access to Ukrainian mineral resources. What does this mean for Ukrainian resilience in the fight against Russian invasion – and for a US-Ukraine relationship strained by the arrival of Donald Trump in the White House?

The Ag-Net News Hour Hosts, Lorrie Boyer and Nick Papagni, “The Ag Meter,” discuss the recent US-Ukraine natural resources deal, highlighting the $50 billion aid without strings attached, expected to boost Ukraine's economy and security. The deal includes lithium and other minerals, with proceeds split between US aid repayment and Ukraine's redevelopment. The hosts also touch on trade negotiations with Japan and the EU, and the impact of tariffs on US companies like GM and Caterpillar. Additionally, they discuss Ford's potential return to flex fuel vehicles, supported by corn organizations, and the challenges of electric vehicles, including battery technology and infrastructure.   In the second segment, Nick and Lorrie talk about California's water situation, noting that two reservoirs, Shasta and Oroville, are at full capacity for the third consecutive year, despite only allocating 50% water to Central Valley farmers. California's reservoirs are at 118% of normal capacity. However, only 30% of the state's water supply comes from snowpack, which often goes to the ocean. The conversation also touch on the bird flu outbreak, with a new strain, D1.1, confirmed in Nevada cattle, raising concerns about wider spread and human health risks. Nick emphasized the importance of cooking meat properly to avoid infection.   The Ag-Net News Hour hosts then discuss the current state of the citrus market, noting a limited supply of Navel oranges pushing prices up, while Valencia oranges are abundant but smaller. Lemons are making a comeback, with prices depressed due to competition from imports. The California walnut market is strong, with three consecutive years of above-average rainfall benefiting growth. The show also highlights the versatility of walnuts in baking and the importance of good marketing strategies in the nut industry. With a little fun, they had an ag fact concluding the segment, stating a high-producing dairy cow yields 10.5 pounds of cheese daily.

The United States and Ukraine have had a long, complicated history that has been defined by just as much partnership and collaboration as hesitation and disagreement. This dynamic is laid bare in the 7-part podcast series ‘Escalation,' produced by our partners at Goat Rodeo, with the national security publication Lawfare. In April 2025, The International Spy Museum hosted a panel discussion on the Washington-Kyiv relationship moderated by SpyCast host Sasha Ingber, and featuring Ukrainian journalist Anastasiia Lapatina, Lawfare's Managing Editor Tyler McBrien, Retired Brigadier General Kipling Kahler, and former National Security Council spokesperson Emily Horne.

In this episode of The President's Daily Brief:     We'll start things off with new accusations from Ukrainian President Zelensky, who claims his nation has gathered intelligence that shows China is now supplying Russia with artillery and gunpowder—a major escalation of Beijing's involvement in Moscow's war effort. Later in the show—as the US and Iran once again head to the negotiating table this weekend, the UN's nuclear watchdog chief warns that Tehran is not far from acquiring a nuclear weapon.  Plus, in what would appear to be a slap in the face to President Trump, the Kremlin is reportedly planning to use a U.S.-owned food producer it seized last year to supply canned goods to the Russian military. In our 'Back of the Brief—good news for those waiting on that big US-Ukraine minerals deal. According to both Trump and the Ukrainian government, that agreement is set to be inked next week.
