When you’re in a downward cycle, how’d we get here, how long’s it going to last, and how do we get out? To provide her insight on this topic, Jacqui Fatka joins solo host Sal Sama in the podcast room for today’s episode of The High Ground powered by Premier Companies. Jacqui is the Lead Industry Analyst for CoBank’s Knowledge Exchange division covering the Farm Supply and Biofuels segments.
Jacqui shares about her career development from her start growing up on the farm to a career as an agriculture journalist to her current role with CoBank. You’ll learn about how her current role helps her spot industry trends and what she’s seeing in current markets overall. She’ll dig into overall industry trends including debt to asset ratios, why it’s important to know your cost of production numbers, and why we are in a bit of a downward cycle. She’ll also share how labor costs and the number of available workers has affected interest rates, and she’ll dig into how electric vehicles and the Renewable Fuel Standard have impacted growers. “There’s new opportunities coming and… if designed well, it can be a new opportunity to really take ag to a new level and get to a new cycle.”
