In this week’s episode, hear how a recent survey indicates an increased positive outlook for U.S. farmers and some tough profit margins for agricultural manufacturers in addition to more ag headline stories. Key policy updates include the latest on President Trump’s cabinet nominations, a bipartisan introduction of the AM Radio for Every Vehicle Act and tariff developments impacting the ag industry.

Our featured interview is with Donald Chase, Vice Chairman of the Georgia Peanut Commission. He shares insights into how the commission allocates checkoff funds to support peanut growers, as well as the unique aspects of the peanut checkoff program. As a farmer himself—growing peanuts, sweet corn, and raising chickens—Chase also discusses the challenges and opportunities in both the poultry and peanut industries. Our reporter and producer Michelle Stangler caught up with Chase at the recent International Production and Processing Expo in Atlanta, Georgia.

As always, the episode includes the latest agricultural weather and market updates.
