04/17/25: Joel Heitkamp is joined by the former Governor and Secretary of Agriculture, Tom Vilsack, for a conversation on the status of the Farm Bill, how the tariffs impact our ag economy, trade agreements with other countries, and more. In 1998, Mr. Vilsack became the first Democrat to be elected as the Governor of Iowa in more than 30 years. He became the 30th and 32nd United States Secretary of Agriculture, from 2008-2017 and 2021-2025, respectively. Only five people in U.S. history have served in the Cabinet longer, and during his tenures, the United States Department of Agriculture set records for U.S. agricultural exports and provided food assistance to millions of Americans. He now serves as the first Chief Executive Officer for the World Food Prize Foundation. In this new role, Governor Vilsack will focus on expanding the Foundation’s global network, and will further position the Foundation as a leader in addressing global food and nutrition insecurity, continuing his lifetime of public service.

Latest Beef Industry News European Union Makes Decision On Cultivated Meat Ban The European Commission criticized Hungary's proposed ban on cultured meat, calling it “unjustified” and potentially disruptive to the EU single market. “No lab-grown meat products are currently authorized in the EU, making a ban premature,” stated the Commission, adding that it could interfere with the EU's scientific approval process for novel foods. Following a TRIS assessment, Sweden, Lithuania, the Netherlands, and Czechia also opposed the ban, citing risks to market unity if cultured meat is later approved. The Netherlands further argued that cultured meat could benefit farmers, offering a future-proof alternative for the agricultural sector. Hungary can now revise its draft ban in response to these comments. Vilsack Calls For Congress To Act On Farm Bill Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack is urging Congress to pass the overdue Farm Bill. “We need a Farm Bill now,” he emphasized in a call with American Farmland Trust, noting limited time left this fall for a bipartisan solution or at least an extension of the current bill. Though hopeful for a five-year bill by year-end, Vilsack warns delays could disrupt 2025 farm financing. The 2018 Farm Bill, temporarily extended, expired on Sept. 30, putting pressure on Congress to act before the November elections. NCBA Criticizes Dietary Guidelines Recommendations The National Cattlemen's Beef Association (NCBA) criticized the Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee's recent push to replace high-quality proteins like beef with plant-based options. NCBA's Ethan Lane called the suggestions "out-of-touch" and “dangerous,” pointing out that beans and lentils can't fully replace the nutrients beef provides. Dr. Shalene McNeill, NCBA's Executive Director of Nutrition Science, emphasized that while beef makes up only 5% of calories in the American diet, it supplies over 5% of essential nutrients like iron, B12, and protein. These recommendations, part of the 2025-2030 Dietary Guidelines process, will be reviewed by USDA and HHS. Arkansas Beef Council Names Best Burger The Arkansas Beef Council announced Bailey's Family Restaurant in Cave City as the winner of the inaugural Arkansas's Best Burger Contest with their Caveman Burger.

The Caveman Burger stands out with a massive two-pound beef patty on a nine-inch bun, available as a double with optional cheese or bacon. Arkansas Secretary of Agriculture Wes Ward noted that the contest highlighted Arkansans' love for quality beef and local restaurants. The Arkansas Beef Council continues to support beef's image and Arkansas's cattle industry through promotional and research efforts.

EPISODE 51 DETAILS USDA Proposed Rules For Alternative Marketing Agreements For Fed Cattle USDA Works For Fairer Fed Cattle Markets During a Farmer and Ranchers in Action event at the White House on Oct. 8, Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack announced several steps to create transparency and fairer trading in the cattle markets. Vilsack said the new actions are part of the effort under the Packers & Stockyards Act of 1921 to enhance price discovery in cattle markets. The agency released a report showing unjust and anticompetitive pricing strategies that exist in today's beef market. For years, USDA has fielded complaints from producers around beef packers using reported regional cash or spot prices as base prices for fed cattle formula pricing agreements, commonly known as Alternative Marketing Agreements (AMAs). The USDA reports this is especially prominent in the fed cattle market as the share of cattle purchased by beef packers using AMAs increased to more than 70 percent while the average share of cattle sold in the negotiated cash spot market fell below 20 percent nationally. USDA is issuing an Advanced Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (ANPR) to seek comment on several possible interventions to develop new benchmarks as AMA base prices and approaches to trading when using benchmarks. The public is invited to comment on this proposed rulemaking by visiting Regulations.gov and commenting on the “Price Discover and Competition in Markets for Fed Cattle”. Comments will close on Dec. 10, 2024.

US Secretary of Agriculture, Tom Vilsack, was recently in Tennessee participating in a town hall hosted by RFD TV. Vilsack laid out the Biden Administrations view for moving agriculture forward and took Tennessee farmers questions. Thomas Capps US Secretary of Agriculture talks with Tennessee farmers. Hello and welcome to Tennessee Home and Farm Radio, I'm Thomas Capps. Tom Vilsack American agriculture is one of the great gifts of this country. But I want to make sure that every farm regardless of size, has the ability to do what they love to do. And more importantly, and as importantly, they have the ability to transfer to the next generation. Thomas Capps US Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack was recently in Tennessee talking with farmers at a town hall hosted by RFD TV. Vilsack laid out the Biden administration's vision for the industry moving forward and answered the Tennessee farmers questions. Vilsack believes expanding opportunities and making farming more profitable will help keep more people in the industry and sustain it for the next generation. Tom Vilsack We need production agriculture, but we also need a companion system that enables that small and mid sized operation to have multiple ways in which they get money from that farming operation so that they can stay viable. Farmers are the best stewards of the land, we just want to make sure that they continue and that have the resources and the ability to do that, and that they get a market advantage. And that is by by virtue of being able to measure, quantify and verify the results. They can participate in other revenue generating opportunities with ecosystem service markets that we create through our rural development programs and through our various economic development programs, more processing capacity so that you can process that agricultural waste into a million different things. Thomas Capps Vilsack also believes there are many opportunities for farmers to sell their products directly to consumers. Tom Vilsack People really are anxious to know where their food comes from. They like the idea when they go to a grocery store that they can buy local. They like the idea that their kids are consuming locally produced items at school. They love the idea of Farm to School, they love the idea of of the local restaurant being able to say you know this chicken wing is from you know, this, farmer and this pork chop is from that farmer. We need to do more of that. Thomas Capps For Tennessee Home and Farm Radio, I'm Thomas Capps.

Join Jim and Greg as they offer up two bad martinis and a crazy one. First, they shake their heads in disbelief and deep skepticism that the Supreme Court couldn't figure out who leaked Justice Alito's majority opinion in the Dobbs case, which resulted in the overturning of Roe v. Wade. They also hammer President Biden for demanding no conditions whatsoever to an extension of the debt ceiling, even though his unconstitutional plan to "forgive" student debt by forcing the bill on other taxpayers caused this debate to happen months earlier than it should have. Finally, they roll their eyes at reports that Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack was tapped to co-chair the Supply Chain Disruption Task Force but never went to a single meeting. Seems to be a lot of that going around with Biden cabinet secretaries.Please visit our great sponsors:Moink https://moinkbox.com/martiniSign up today to get FREE Filet Mignon in every order for a year.
