This week on The Truth About Ag, we’re tackling the theme “Fear Sells—Who’s Buying?” Evan is joined by Todd Andries, repeat guest Dean Klippenstein, and U.S. farmer Rich Bronec for a wide-ranging roundtable on what’s really happening in agriculture as 2025 winds down.

From land transitions and rental opportunities to rising fertilizer costs, shifting rotations, and the reality of cash flow crunches, the group dives into where the opportunities are even in a margin-tight environment. They cover long-term leases, machinery costs, lender expectations, and the growing importance of financial acumen on today’s farms.

Whether you’re wrestling with operating loans, debating rent vs. buy decisions, or considering how to build a war chest for the next big expansion, this conversation is packed with practical insight. Tune in for honest talk, a few laughs, and a forward-looking perspective on how producers can find stability and growth in uncertain times.
