Harvesting Success: Economics Meets Agronomics

In this Grow Smart Talk we delve deep into the challenges and opportunities in agriculture during these uncertain economic times. This talk features insightful discussions with Kanlaya Barr, Director of Corporate Economics at John Deere, Kim Tutor, Technical Marketing Manager, and Joan Jordan, Product Manager at BASF, who share their expertise on maximizing farm profitability. As farmers face tightening margins and volatile markets, this talk provides valuable strategies for thriving amidst these challenges.

Understanding the complexities of the global commodity market is crucial for farmers today. Geopolitical events and unpredictable weather patterns impact supply and prices, especially for U.S. farmers. Political developments, such as elections and the Farm Bill, also play a crucial role in agricultural stability. Joan and Kanlaya stress the importance of farmers engaging with local agronomists and taking advantage of partnerships, like the one between BASF and John Deere.
