Show Notes
In this episode hear my thoughts on current events in the Business of Agriculture. We revisit the "nuisance" lawsuits against pork producers in North Carolina. Smithfield just lost it's third straight court case - and this one is reportedly gonna cost $94 million to pay off only six neighbors! What do lawsuits against Ag mean for you and what can the Business of Agriculture do to stop them? We also discuss trade issues and why I still believe we'll have better deals in place by October. Notice how much more agreeable Europe became when facing the prospect of losing US markets for cars? Finally, I close out with a lesson I shared at a recent crop field day on why you can't skimp your way to prosperity. Enjoy!
