Staying on Top of Today's Ag Economic Dynamics

We dive deep into the intricate world of agricultural economics with our guest, David Widmar. David, an agricultural economist and co-founder of Ag Economic Insights, brings a wealth of expertise in ag trends and farm economy. Today, we'll explore the current "state of the union" for agriculture, examining key factors shaping the industry, strategies for rebound, and contrasting today's landscape with past challenges, like those of the 1980s. We'll also explore the evolving global food systems, changing consumer preferences, labor market dynamics, trade policies, environmental challenges, rural development, and the integration of digital technologies like blockchain.
