Agriculture and energy are closely linked together, and in our current political environment it really becomes evident as they are attacking both industries for methane and greenhouse gas emissions. Not only are the markets tightly aligned so are the cultural and social standards. Our great farmers use massive amounts of energy to feed our country, and they rely on low-cost abundant energy. Including diesel, fertilizer and electricity in huge quantities. And not often thought of, the fertilizers require natural gas to be manufactured.My guest today is Sara Falen Tate, Owner of Wild West Advocacy, and Cowgirl Magazine 30 under 30 award winer. We had an absolute blast talking about the methane regulations, workers, and the markets. She is a great resource for the agricultural community advocacy fighting for American’s rights and helping farmers against the regulatory onslaught. I have often talked with other oil and gas rig hands that we are modern-day cowboys, and I agree. When you go to lunch in west Texas, at any diner, close your eyes, and you can hear great conversations from Ranchers, or oil and gas rig hands. It is all about God, family and country.Thank you Sara for stopping by the Crude Truth, I had an absolute blast – Rey. Follow Sarah Falen Tate on LinkedInhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/sarah-falen-j-d-576a86120/Highlights of the Podcast02:58 - A little bit background of Sarah04:46 - Federal laws and it's some extent state laws impact agriculture and natural resources06:54 - One of the people that we give a hard time all the time 08:31 - The first thing ranchers will tell you 09:49 - Important part of environmental health 11:32 - The Securities and Exchange Commission 15:29 - Stand on issues 18:32 - What is production Agriculture? 21:33 - Small towns where the majority of workers are farmers or ranchers 23:07 - The reason that they work so hard to control rural America versus cities26:39 - Legal issues and how they impact agriculture.27:42 - Lot of states require branding29:34 - The rate at which we are losing agricultural land 32:06 - One of the biggest concerns
