Live Aid: Music That Fed the World (and Filled My Parents’ Basement)

This Week In Ag #124: Live Aid: Music That Fed the World (and Filled My Parents’ Basement) This past Sunday marked the 40th anniversary of the greatest PR and musical event in history. It was held at Wembley Stadium in London. And at JFK Stadium in Philadelphia. It was viewed by nearly 40% of the world’s population. The event was Live Aid, a benefit concert to raise money and awareness for famine relief in Africa. It was the event that forged a generation, my generation, Gen X. I’ll never forget that day. Dad was among the first in our neighborhood to purchase a satellite dish. I threw a party that day, attended by seemingly every college-aged aggie in the county (or at least dad seemed to think so)

The Big, the Bold, and the Bill: What BBB Means for Ag

The Big Beautiful Bill was signed into law on July 4. At 887 pages, it certainly is big. As for being beautiful, that will be in the eyes of the beholders. Like most budget bills, depending on your point of view, the contents may resemble that famous Clint Eastwood film, “The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly.” But what does BBB specifically mean for agriculture?

A Farmer’s Fourth of July: The Fireworks Waited

This Week In Ag #122: A Farmer's Fourth of July: The Fireworks Waited For many Midwest farm families, the Fourth of July wasn’t about fireworks or cookouts—it was wheat harvest season. In this personal reflection, Fred recalls a time when the combine came first, soybeans followed close behind, and the only bangs came from the grain bin, not the sky.

The 1980s Farm Crisis: Will We Go Back to the Future?

The 1980s Farm Crisis: Will We Go Back to the Future? Ushered in by the USA Olympic hockey team’s “Miracle on Ice” and the flight of the space shuttle, Americana was running wild. The decade of excess featured a soaring stock market, booming GNP, and iconic movies and fashion. This was the era of Yuppies… the age of video players… when MTV actually played videos. The 1980s were totally awesome, for nearly everyone but farmers.

Beef Is More Than a Business, It’s a Passion.

Beef Is More Than a Business, It’s a Passion. Few professions capture our imagination like ranching. There’s an undeniable romanticism attached to cowboy culture. Taylor Sheridan has made a career depicting it. And let’s be real, they don’t make movies or write songs about pork and poultry producers. Western lifestyle is at a fever pitch. Brands like Ariat and Wrangler are thriving. And so is the cattle industry. Beef prices are enjoying record highs. And when it comes to producing beef, nobody does it better than the American cowboy. US cattlemen produce over 21% of the world’s beef supply – 28 billion pounds annually – ranking #1 in the world. Yet they do it with just 6% of the world’s cattle herd.
