Barn Talk Q&A: What Every Young Farmer Needs to Know: Life Lessons and Practical Advice


Listen Later

In this episode, Tork and Sawyer open up the barn doors for another no-holds-barred Q&A, tackling questions submitted by you, the listeners. They kick things off with a quick update on the family farm—think muddy fields, stuck trucks, and the ongoing dance with unpredictable Iowa weather. After a rundown of the current ag markets and a few laughs over late-night pig loading adventures, the guys dive deep into skills every young person should develop, the importance of communication, and how staying curious and willing to learn has fueled their journey on and off the farm.

Tech, AI, and the changing landscape of farm life are in the spotlight, sparking conversation about adapting to new tools and the impact of digital distraction. Tork and Sawyer get candid about the struggles of focus, the challenge of saying no, and the reality of balancing busy farm life with personal growth—all while sharing a few sips of a special Kentucky bourbon.

Tune in for practical advice, some family banter, and plenty of real talk about farming, tech, and finding your way in a world that’s always changing. Whether you’re here for the ag market insights, life lessons, or a good laugh, this episode has something for every Barn Talk listener.
