What Will Your Farm Look Like in 30 Years? (Hint: It’s Not What You Think!). In this episode of The Granary, we dig into the future of farming. Will the next generation still be planting corn and soybeans, or will climate, water availability, and market demands push farmers toward unexpected crops—like peanuts, sorghum, or even camelina (whatever that is)?
The guys debate whether traditional crops will still dominate or if farmers will need to pivot to more sustainable and profitable options. They discuss shifting weather patterns, irrigation challenges, and how global markets might force new rotations. Plus, they share real-world experiences about how crop diversification has changed their own farms—sometimes for the better, sometimes for the worse.
One thing’s for sure: Farming is changing, and the key to success might just be keeping an open mind, and maybe even growing a little Milo, but don’t call it sorghum, unless you want a fight!
Pull up a chair, grab a drink, and join the conversation!
