On this episode, we talk with Brandon Day, Chief Operating Officer of the Yield Lab Institute, about a partnership with the United Soybean Board for the Soy Innovation Challenge, which is working to find new and innovative ways to increase the use and value of soybean meal in existing markets. We also talk with American Farm Bureau Federation President Zippy Duvall about the state of agriculture as we close out 2022 and we look ahead to next month's AFBF convention in San Juan, Puerto Rico. Nutrien agronomist Dr. Karl Wyant talks about "The Dirt" podcast, as well as the company's eKonomics fertilizer and crop nutrition tool. In this week's "Meat Monitor" segment we learn about efforts to push for Congressional confirmation of key U.S. agricultural trade representatives, and in "Bushels and Cents," Ray Bohacz discusses the need for regular testing of hydraulic fluid in farm equipment. The music also features "Swinging Santa Claus," a new Christmas tune from traditional country and Western swing artist Steve Markwardt.
