The HAT Soil Health Podcast- The Legacy of Dave Brandt

January 31, 2024 2:02 pm|

Dave Brandt was an Ohio farmer who made a huge impact on the world of soil health. His sudden passing last year left a hole in the farming community. On this episode, we’re at the 32nd Annual National No-Tillage Conference reflecting on Dave’s legacy with his son Jay, and one of Dave’s many mentees, Jimmy Emmons from Oklahoma.

Jay and Jimmy were panelists during the David Brandt Memorial Lecture Series, "Spreading the No-Till Message: Farmer-to-Farmer Panel Discussion," at the National No-Tillage Conference. It's just one of the efforts to keep Dave Brandt's message alive. Another effort is Fields of Sinsinawa, a learning center organized by farmers to promote practices that Dave shared with so many of his colleagues and mentees.

This episode of the HAT Soil Health Podcast is brought to you by the Conservation Cropping Systems Initiative. You can learn more about their efforts and see a schedule of events at ccsin.org.

Mitch Frazier is the President and CEO of AgriNovus Indiana which is a non-profit that’s dedicated to moving the agbiosciences sector forward.

Mitch will explain how value-added food nutrition, animal health and nutrition, plant science and crop protection, agriculture tech, and production agriculture fit into the mission of AgriNovus. You’ll also hear about how the need for AgriNovus was discovered and how they’re working to connect startups to capital and other companies. He’ll also share how agriculture is dominating at the Consumer Electronics Show and why and how the powerful players in the agbioscience realm are being drawn to Indiana. As Ryan says, Mitch is powerfully persuasive, and if you don’t live in Indiana already, you just might have to pack up and move there.
