    The Deviled Egg Co. Story with Raechel Van Buskirk

    When Raechel Van Buskirk served up some creatively-flavored deviled eggs at her dive bar in Omaha, Nebraska, she had no idea that it would change her life. And what started as a way to drum up some business on Sunday mornings, would eventually lead to a chain of restaurants, national distribution and even an appearance on Shark Tank.  Today, Raechel walks us through the whirlwind rise of her company, Deviled Egg Co., including the struggle of keeping a business going through Covid, the nerve-wracking preparation for her Shark Tank appearance, and how she's navigated the volatility in egg prices.

    Building a Brand on Being First with Jasen Urena of NestFresh

    In an industry where it would be easy to treat an egg as just an egg, one brand has built its entire identity on finding the next big thing.  Jasen Urena is the Executive Vice President of NestFresh, a company that's been an early adopter of cage-free, free-range, pasture-raised, non-GMO, and regenerative organic egg production, and recently became the first company in the US to put a humanely hatched egg on grocery store shelves.  Today, Jasen walks us through their history of innovation, how NestFresh has built long-term partnerships with over 300 independent family farms, and what it actually takes to be a first mover in the egg industry.

    More Eggs, More Often with Emily Metz of the American Egg Board

    Egg prices are sitting near all-time lows, and that's not because of weak demand, but because supply has outpaced it. Emily Metz, President and CEO of the American Egg Board, joins Greg to talk about how her organization is working to close that gap. Emily walks us through the AEB's strategy for getting people to consume more eggs, from changing their reputation as only a breakfast food, to getting more eggs into school lunches, and opening up export markets abroad.

    The Scramble: If Everyone Wants In-Ovo Sexing, Why Hasn't It Scaled?

    In-ovo sexing has the potential to end the practice of male chick culling — and the technology seems to have finally caught up to the ambition.  Greg hosted a panel on the topic at the Peak Conference, featuring Nancy Roulston, Senior Director of Corporate Policy and Animal Science at the ASPCA; Juliana Machado, Geneticist and Data Scientist at Hendrix Genetics; Casey Downey from Innovate Animal Ag; and Dr. Larry Sadler, Senior Vice President of the United Egg Producers. The panel digs into the current state of the technology, the real costs of adoption, and the coordination challenge of getting hatcheries, producers, retailers, and consumers all moving in the same direction.

    Will Low Prices Cure Low Prices? with Brian Moscogiuri

    In early 2025 HPAI outbreaks had egg prices sitting at record highs; just one year later they're hitting inflation-adjusted historic lows. And while that may be great for consumers looking for a cheap source of protein, it has a lot of US producers feeling the squeeze.  Joining us to discuss the issue is Brian Moscogiuri. Formerly of Urner Barry, and Eggs Unlimited, Brian recently launched a new venture called KHM Trading, a commercial wholesale broker of shell eggs and egg products.  Brian understands the dynamics of the US egg market better than anyone, and today he discusses the factors contributing to the dip in prices, what the industry's doing to try and drum up new demand, and when producers might start to see some relief.

    The Global Expansion of Big Dutchman with Bernd Meerpohl

    In 1985, Bernd Meerpohl watched his father take a risk in purchasing a struggling farm equipment company. That company was called Big Dutchman, and today it operates in 174 countries and generates around €1.5 billion in annual sales.  Bernd took over as CEO in 1992, and maintained the unwavering commitment to salesmanship, innovation, and emerging markets that's made Big Dutchman into the global behemoth they are today.  Today, Bernd walks us through the pivotal moments that shaped the company's growth, from the fall of the Berlin Wall to the rise of alternative laying systems in the US, and shares his candid views on the role that data collection and AI systems will play in the future of animal agriculture.

    HPAI Response: 45 Minutes vs. 3 Days with Erik Tyrrell-Knott of Alveo

    From the time you start to suspect you might have an HPAI outbreak on your farm, to getting lab confirmation, can take between 1 and 5 days. And while producers wait for those results to come back, they're forced to make extremely tough decisions — cancelling deliveries, isolating employees, culling entire flocks — based on incomplete information.  Erik Tyrrell-Knott is the President and Chief Business Officer of Alveo, a company that's built a handheld HPAI testing device that delivers a trustworthy result in 45 minutes. And while their tests won't replace the current lab testing we use today, their aim is to give veterinarians and producers the data they need to act with speed and confidence.  Today, Erik walks us through how the test works, why it represents such an important leap forward in the fight against HPAI, and how it could one day make "partial depopulation" possible.

    Lighting a Chicken House Isn’t What You Think with Max Obers of HATO Lighting

    Most people would figure that lighting a hen house is a question of screwing in some bulbs and turning them on. But as it turns out, the type of lighting you use can have a profound effect on birds, shaping their behavior, improving welfare, and driving production results. Max Obers is the CEO of HATO Lighting, a Netherlands-based company with over 50 years of history in agricultural lighting. Today, Max walks us through the science of how chickens perceive light differently than humans, how HATO puts that knowledge to work on farms across the world, and where the technology is headed next.
