Making Ag Cool Again: Trends and Social Media with Discover Ag Podcast

We sit down with Natalie and Tara from the Discover Ag Podcast to hear about their journey into the world of agriculture and how their rising podcast came to life. Together, we dive deep into the role social media plays in the agricultural space, and the ways it’s impacting the next generation of farmers and ranchers, especially when it comes to children. Natalie and Tara play "Give Em the Boot" where they reveal their love for Mike Rowe and make a pitch to become his assistants. We also explore some of the most exciting trends in agriculture today and announce the dynamic 2025 partnership between AgAmerica Media and Discover Ag. Tune in for an insightful conversation that blends passion, purpose, pop culture, and the power of digital storytelling in agriculture! (0:00) - Welcome Natalie and Tara from Discover Ag! (1:47) - Rural American Lifestyle and Cowboys in Las Vegas (3:25) - Discover Ag: Sliding into DMs, Podcast Mission, Women in Ag (4:58) - Social Media Exploding in Ag 8:00 - Raw Milk, Bone Broth Hot Chocolate, Other Trends (9:00) - Tara and Natalie's Farming Backgrounds (12:17) - Launching the Discover Ag Brand (17:32) - Using Social Media as Ag's Marketing Tool (20:08) - HOT TOPIC: Children on Social Media (24:20) - Bridging the Gap Between Producers and Consumers (26:18) - Mainstream Media is Dead? (28:25) - We Love Jackson Laux the Tractor Kid (30:15) - "Give Em the Boot" Presented by Tecovas (35:50) - BREAKING NEWS: Discover Ag Partnering with AgAmerica Media! (39:55) - Merging Pop Culture and Agriculture(43:15) - Dream Podcast Guests  Shop Like a Farmer merch at https://shop.agamericamedia.com/  Follow along: IG: https://www.instagram.com/likeafarmerpodcast/ FB: https://facebook.com/likeafarmer TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@likeafarmerpodcast Twitter: https://twitter.com/likeafarmer_  About Like A Farmer: Like a Farmer is a podcast and video series that spotlights accomplished individuals from diverse industries and their inspiring stories of overcoming adversity and achieving success.
