The regen ag learning curve
Regenerative agriculture sounds simple until you’re the one changing practices, sharing field data, and taking the risk on yield and cost. We sit down with Paul Scheetz, Director of Regenerative Agriculture at ADM, to get specific about what they’ve learned since launching regenerative ag efforts and why the hardest part is often not the agronomy, but the trust. Farmers routinely ask, “Why do you want this data?” and we break down how that concern gets answered in real life through incentives...

Business reality behind today's beef headlines
The U.S. cattle industry can handle a lot, but the New World screwworm situation has forced hard, practical decisions across the supply chain, especially in Texas feedyard country. Our Clint Peck sits down with Laphe LaRoe, Chairman of the Texas Cattle Feeders Association, to get a clear-eyed look at what’s actually happening as the border reopens to Mexican feeder cattle and why the return to “normal” volumes may be slower than many expect. We talk through the business reality behind today’...

Supply chain collaboration to drive regenerative agriculture
Four organizations can sit in the same supply chain and still act like they live on different planets. We wanted to see what changes when they stop acting alone. Sarah Muirhead talks with Paul Scheetz, Director of Regenerative Agriculture at ADM, about a new collaboration with General Mills and Walmart designed to accelerate regenerative agriculture on 40,000 wheat acres across Illinois, Indiana, and Missouri. We dig into why this cross-industry partnership matters for scaling regenerative f...

What's the real cost of the U.S.-Mexico border shutdown
A border closure can feel like a single policy switch, but the beef industry experiences it like a chain reaction. We sit down with Alvaro Bustillos, cattle rancher and founding partner of Vaquero Trading LLC, and president of the Chihuahua Cattlemen’s Association, to unpack what happens when the U.S.-Mexico feeder cattle trade stops moving, why the shutdown tied to New World Screwworm keeps returning, and how the economic shock spreads from ranches to feedlots to packing plants. If you care ...

Setting the agenda for better swine health
Endemic disease already steals margins, but a foreign animal disease outbreak could rewrite the rules overnight. From the World Pork Expo in Des Moines, we sit down with Marisa Rotolo, Director of Swine Health for the National Pork Board, and pork producer Paul Ayers to explain why the industry is building a National Swine Health Strategy and why it starts with one simple idea: let producers define the real problems and the practical fixes. Our Ann Hess digs into what we keep hearing across ...

Agribusiness under pressure
Margin pressure in agriculture is not a headline, it is a daily operating constraint. When diesel swings, fertilizer tightens, and geopolitics disrupts supply chains, agribusiness leaders have to make decisions fast, often without the ability to simply raise prices and move on. Host Sarah Muirhead sits down with Jim Clark of Granite Creek Capital Partners to map the biggest challenges to growth in agribusiness in 2026 and the real-world choices operators face when input costs surge. They dig...

New World screwworm alert
A parasite the US eliminated decades ago is back on the radar, and the clock starts the moment someone notices a “not quite right” wound. We sit down with Dr. Patrick Webb, Assistant Chief Veterinarian with the National Pork Board, to unpack what a confirmed New World screwworm case in southern Texas signals for pork producers and the wider livestock industry, and why early reporting beats waiting for certainty every time. We walk through how a suspected case typically moves from farm observ...

Simplifying Meat Industry Reporting
An excessive number of questions can turn “reporting” into a full-time job. So what happens when an industry decides to cut the noise and keep only what actually drives improvement? Sarah Muirhead sits down with Kristi Block, lead for the Meat Institute’s reporting strategy, to unpack the newly updated Meat Institute Reporting framework and what it means for packers, processors, and the wider meat and poultry supply chain. We walk through how the framework started as a proactive way to gathe...
