AOA Monday 3-23-2026

Monday on AOA, powered by Cenex, we open the show looking at more headline risk volatility impacting the markets across the board with Darin Newsom, Senior Market Analyst at Barchart. In Segment Two we discuss the record heat over the weekend, the precipitation outlook for the week ahead and the prospects of a "Godzilla" El Nino this year with DTN Meteorologist John Baranick. Then in Segments Three and Four, we talk with Agricultural Retailers Association SVP of Public Policy & Counsel Richard Gupton. We focus on ARA policy priorities on Capitol Hill in Segment Three and then we learn more about the Growing Matters coalition and the  2026 BeSure! campaign. The annual campaign emphasizes the importance of label literacy among growers and applicators to help minimize potential wildlife exposure and ensure the safe use, handling, storage and disposal of neonicotinoid products.
