AOA Friday 4-4-2025

On Friday's AOA, we start the show with a look at continued market fallout from tariffs and more with Shawn Hackett from Hackett Financial Advisors. In Segment Two, we recap the latest results of the Purdue University/CME Group Ag Economy Barometer with Michael Langemeier, Director of Purdue's Center for Commercial Agriculture. In Segment Three, we have a conversation with American Soybean Association President Caleb Ragland from Kentucky about tariffs, the use of 2,4-D herbicides being looked at by the International Trade Commission and more. Then in Segment Four, we hear from Michigan farmer John Burk who has been affected by some of the funding freezes of IRA conservation funding and get his thoughts on why programs like this are important for conservation purposes.
