The Power of Ag Connections | Ep. 80

In this episode of the AgCulture Podcast, I talk about what I learned while hosting a group of Nuffield Scholars in Western Michigan. We get into how local microclimates shape crop choices, how community values show up in the way farms run, and why sharing ideas across countries really matters in agriculture. I also touch on why it's so important to get young people involved in fairs and ag events.
