A range of topics are covered - Matt losing, getting labour, Trump winning, the wool market being a frog and the concerns about the sheep industry.

Trump, wheat rally and virus in the meat
Just the two of this week, as we haven't had the time to get a guest on. A quick market update covering the rally in the wheat market, bird flu in the US cattle, our predictions for Trump and a bit more.

Happy hour with the Dry Farmer
We have another chat with Trevor Whittington, CEO of WA Farmers and author of the Dry Farmer (click here). As always on our chat with Trevor, we discuss a range of topics.
Dry weather in WA, the future of the sheep industry, the announcement of state funding in WA to help dry farmers and a lot more. -
Praise to the meat.
We record a podcast with animal scientist Robert Hewitt; Robert goes by the Twitter handle @meat_evangalist and has a very data and objective approach to his online debates.
In this podcast, we talk about how the pig industry has advanced production, lessons that cattle/sheep could learn from pork, how animal activists have some value and the retailing of pork. -
What's happening in the ag markets?
We do a quick market summary of what is happening across grains and livestock.

Exposing the future of ag
We have Natalie Green, event organiser of the future ag expo, a new expo and conference held at the Melbourne showgrounds in April, which will display new ag technology and speakers (including us)
Customer Reviews
What a great laugh.
Every time I see the notification pop up that a podcast has arrived I get excited as I know I’m going to have an hour of informative and slightly nonsensical agricultural information.
Wish Andrew would put on a thicker accent, it’s so sexy.
Most entertaining and informative ag pod on the air.
Always look forward to this pod for up to date, relevant agricultural information…. Along with a good laugh.
Volumes
Good content,
but when listening to in the tractor difficult to hear play both as the volume of the presenters is louder for one than the other so it’s too loud in the cab for one person and too quiet for the other
