On this episode, we learn about the latest developments in the sorghum market from Craig Meeker, a Kansas grower and chairman of the National Sorghum Producers and Norma Ritz Johnson, the executive director of the United Sorghum Checkoff Program. Then we check in with Nutrien Senior Agronomist Mike Howell as we revisit the best of “The Dirt With Nutrien.” This week, Mike is talking cattle nutrition through minerals in forage. In our “Meat Monitor” segment, we learn about a U.S. red meat rebound in Hong Kong, and in “Bushels and Cents,” Ray Bohacz talks about heat soak in diesel engines. The episode also includes the new single from Dennis Ledbetter and Highway 101’s Nikki Nelson, “How Far Would You Go?”
