Gripp Ag, Agriculture Operations Tracking, & Scary Movies

“The farmer is struggling because they’re really dying the death of a thousand apps.”  On this episode of The High Ground powered by Premier Companies, Tracey Wiedmeyer joins hosts Jeff Jarrett and Sal Sama in the podcast room!  He grew up on a farm, and now Tracey is the co-founder and CEO of Gripp Ag, a company that creates mobile software to help growers scale their agriculture operations because of their operational data tracking.

The Hoosier Ag This Week Podcast for 12/14/24

On this edition of Hoosier Ag This Week: Farm labor has been an ongoing issue for the ag industry. Our C.J. Miller has an exclusive conversation with American Farm Bureau Federation President Zippy Duvall, who says he’ll be pushing lawmakers on Capitol Hill next year to revise the H-2A Visa program to better meet the needs of the ag industry.

Beef is under attack again! This time, it's by the Dietary Guidelines for Americans and their “scientific report” that recommends less red meat consumption. Eric Pfeiffer chats with Sigrid Johannes with the National Beef Cattlemen’s Association, who says the “report” is based not on science, but on a political bias.

You’ll also hear about a new program starting next year from AgriNovus Indiana that is looking to reward three top agbioscience start-up companies with $25,000 each.

All that—plus Brian Basting with Advance Trading reviews Friday’s grain markets. It's all part of the Hoosier Ag This Week Podcast!
