In this no-holds-barred episode, Damian Mason sits down with Kelly Garrett, Adam Byrne, and Gail Stratman to unpack the tangled mess — and quiet triumphs — of American agriculture today. From the loss of farmer autonomy to a flood of confusing products, the conversation exposes why the system often feels rigged to “farm the farmer.”
But it’s not all bad news. The crew also gives credit where it’s due: productivity is off the charts, technology is impressive, and nobody works harder than folks in ag. Still, they ask tough questions: Are we overproducing ourselves into unprofitability? Has comfort in the cab led to agronomic blind spots? And who’s really to blame when things go sideways — the farmer, the dealer, or the corporations?
It’s a refreshingly honest, funny, and thought-provoking look at the highs and lows of the industry we all depend on.
