Happy Fri-YAY y'all! We're ending the week on a fun note by talking to the hosts of another podcast joining the Global Ag Network - Angie Setzer, Karen Corrigan, and Jennifer Campbell! They are the voices behind the Girls Talk Ag podcast and today we chat about why they decided to create a podcast, what their life is like as moms and ag professionals, and some of the fun things they've encountered on their journey. We also hit some not-as-much-fun-news as farm income is predicted to drop again this year and a NAFTA signing by the end of today is looking less and less likely. But it's worth listening anyway, and subscribing any place you get podcasts!
A third and final great day at the Farm Progress Show 2018! Yesterday we had the chance to catch Secretary Sonny Perdue during and after his talk to the attendees at the show here and Boone and he did address several issues that farmers have been talking quite a bit about recently - WOTUS, NAFTA, and ethanol to name a few and we have a few of his clips to play today. We also snagged a little time with Iowa farmer and NCGA board member Kevin Ross for his thoughts on the administration and current goings-on in the world of agriculture; and we got to spend more time with our friends at Camso talking high speed tracks for road travel and remanufactured tracks for growers looking for a lower cost replacement option!
Second day of the Farm Progress Show was a little less wet than day one! No heavy rain, just heavy traffic and lots of new products on display. Today we caught up with cattle feeder and hauler Kurt Dallmeyer and talked about the cattle industry and the ELD mandate reprieve. We also had a second conversation with Martin from Camso about the differences of tracks versus tires under heavy equipment. We even have a special guest appearance by Iowa farmer Ted Hamer!
Live from the Farm Progress 2018 show today getting a little rain! Ag News Daily is powered today by sponsor Camso- tune in to find out how tracks are becoming the new trend in the equipment industry!
