What Should Agriculture Really Be Worried About? | The Granary29 sep34 min

Agriculture has plenty to worry about—but are we focused on the right things?

Damian Mason sits down with Chad Henderson, Matt Miles, and Tommy Roach for a wide-ranging conversation about the issues that could have a lasting impact on American agriculture. They dig into agriculture’s shrinking political influence, the growing disconnect between farmers and consumers, fragmentation within the industry, questions surrounding land-grant universities, and whether agriculture needs a better approach to public communication.

Along the way, the crew debates food policy, social media misinformation, consumer expectations, and agriculture’s role in national security. And somehow, a serious discussion about the future of farming also turns into an investigation of one of modern food’s great mysteries: How exactly do you milk a cashew?

Pull up a chair for a candid look at the challenges agriculture may need to start paying more attention to.
