from Farm4Profit Podcast · host Tony Reed, Zach Hefty

In this Farm4Fun episode, Zach Hefty and multi-time Farm4Profit favorite Tony Reed return to the show to preview the upcoming Ag PhD Field Day while sharing honest updates on one of the most challenging growing seasons many farmers have experienced. The conversation begins with spring planting struggles, including Tony's incredible 15-plus inches of rainfall, multiple rounds of replanting, and fields ranging from freshly planted corn to chest-high corn—all within the same operation. Meanwhile, Zach discusses the opposite challenge in South Dakota: dry conditions and hoping for timely rains before Field Day. The discussion then shifts to Ag PhD Field Day and what has made it one of agriculture's biggest educational experiences. Topics include: Why Ag PhD Field Day is completely free to attend Research plots showcasing the latest agronomic practices Hands-on demonstrations with new equipment and technology High-yield farmer presentations from across North America "Crazy Trials" that test unconventional farming ideas Opportunities to interact with leading agricultural content creators Product demonstrations and ride-and-drive experiences Why education—not sales—is the focus of the event The logistics behind feeding more than 10,000 attendees Building an event that combines education, networking, and entertainment The episode also includes plenty of laughs as the crew discusses anniversary gifts, old farm trucks, Cameo videos, Beater with a Heater, weather forecasting, and Tony Reed's legendary podcast appearances.
