Tractors And Troubadours

On this episode, presented by Case IH Genuine Lubricants, we introduce you to Cesar Delgado, who hasn't let cerebral palsy get in the way of his quest to become a farm broadcaster. We also tell you about his "Backroads of Illinois" program, set to launch on Rural Strong Radio. We also spend time with John Deere product specialists Chase Milem, Ben Longlet and Ryan Jardon about the venerable brand's latest innovations. In this week's installment of "The Dirt With Nutrien," Senior Agronomists Mike Howell and Dr. Alan Blaylock discuss Liebig's Law of the Minimum, to help growers manage inputs and yield potential. In our "Meat Monitor" segment, U.S. Meat Export Federation President and CEO Dan Halstrom discusses this week's USDA decision to use Commodity Credit Coproration funds for a Regional Agricultural Promotion Program aimed at expanding opportunities for U.S. agricultural products in international markets. In "Bushels and Cents," Ray Bohacz offers a reminder that it's "buyer beware" when purchasing pre-owned equipment and vehicles for your farm. The episode also features a new single, "First Face," from Nashville singer/songwriter Adam Warner.
