This week's episode covers reasons the price of fertilizer has skyrocketed over the last few months, U.S. Sugar's acquisition of Imperial Sugar in Savannah, Georgia, and how that might impact Red River Valley sugarbeet growers, and we learn about Mitch Rowe of Sure-Flex Hybrids in Jackson, Minnesota.

We also introduce a new podcast segment, the "Sugarbeet Spotlight" where we take a look around the latest news across the country in the sugarbeet industry.
