On this episode, we learn about the 2023 Farmers Business Network Planting Intentions Report for FBN Chief Economist and VP of Research Kevin McNew. Then we head back to Orlando, Florida, for the third part of our coverage of Commodity Classic 2023. This week we chat with FBN's Adriano Santos about the organization's mission and offerings. We also talk with Firestone Ag's Bill Durivage about steps farmers should take to preserve their tires this growing season. We also learn about Shark Wheel, an airless tire for irrigation systems from company CEO Zack Fleishman. We chat about sustainability and carbon markets with Truterra's Mariah Murphy and we talk about strategies growers can employ to set themselves up for success in 2023 and beyond with UPL's Lynn Justesen. In this week's installment of The Dirt with Nutrien, Senior Agronomist Mike Howell discusses how weather patterns might affect this growing season with Nutrien meteorologist Eric Snodgrass. In our Meat Monitor segment, we learn about the U.S. Meat Export Federation's efforts to seek long-term tariff reductions on U.S. pork in the Philippines, and in "Bushels and Cents," Ray Bohacz is talking faulty ground circuits.
