Agriculture has been around for more than 10,000 years.
But you can argue that in the last 50 years, it’s changing and evolving faster than ever before.
That evolution has included the growing relationship between agriculture and what we now call “sustainability.”
And someone who's been along for almost that entire ride is our very own Tom Daniel, Nutrien Ag Solutions' Director of North America Retail and Grower Sustainable Ag, who is retiring after 43 years in the industry.
So in this episode, we thought it would be fun and interesting to look back at that history through Tom's eyes.
He'll tell us about trends that have come and gone and re-emerged yet again. We'll chart how new technologies have made better sustainability outcomes, higher productivity and healthier margins possible. And we'll explore the changing relationship between consumers and the food they eat, and how sustainable ag has always been at the heart of all we do—whether you actually call it "sustainable ag" or not.
