We track a sudden wheat surge and a midday snapshot of grains and livestock, then shift to a boots-on-the-ground conversation about agronomy that directly improves farm profits. Zach Hefty explains how Ag PhD teaches practical crop science and why their Field Day draws thousands by focusing on real research instead of a sales pitch.

• Quick grain, cattle, and hog market check plus what is driving wheat
• Ag PhD mission and how agronomy education ties to yield and profit
• Farm Basics and why clear explanations matter for non-farm audiences
