AOA 11-1-2024

On Friday's AOA, powered by Cenex Premium Diesel, we start the show by having a conversation with Senator Roger Marshall (R-KS) about his recent op-ed in Newsweek where he compared President Trump's trade agenda against current Harris-Biden Administration policies impacting farmers, ranchers and rural America. In Segment Two, we have a conversation about the tightening cattle supply and how the Charolais breed is uniquely positioned to offer a terminal cross to help offset an expected 700,000 calf shortfall in 2025. We talk with American International Charolais Association Executive Vice President, Brett Spader.   Then we close the show in Segments 3 and 4 with our November Farmer/Rancher Roundtable. We discuss elections, Farm Bill, climate smart practices, the ag economy and more. This month we are joined by Tom Croner from Somerset County, Pennsylvania and John Burk from Bay City, Michigan for our discussion.
