Episode 176 - Agricultural Barons: Questions Left to Consider

This week it is just us, Valene and Katharine, sharing our thoughts as we reflect back on our conversation with Barons author, Austin Frerick. The two of us still have questions after our interview with Austin and we are diving into those questions today. If you have not listened to episode 174 and episode 175, we highly encourage you to do so before tuning into this episode. 

We are committed to having tough conversations and addressing hard topics and realized we had a lot to think about after our interview with Austin. In this episode, we are discussing problems and possible solutions for the current system, the role of Check Offs in agriculture, the importance of having a safe space for hard conversations within the ag industry, food security and sustainability, and how farmers must adapt to market demands.
