If a genie granted you a magic wand, what would you change about your farm? From better soil and cooler nights to being fully irrigated, Damian Mason asks Temple Rhodes, Chad Henderson and Matt Miles from XtremeAg about the tweaks they would make to revolutionize their operations—if only it were that simple.
But it’s not all wishful thinking! They dig deep into why changes, even magical ones, come with a ripple effect. Alter the weather? Say goodbye to cotton. Upgrade your soil? Time to relearn everything from scratch. Relinquishing control, optimizing equipment, and even battling urban sprawl—this episode has it all, including some good-natured ribbing and real insights into farm-life challenges.
Pour a drink, grab a seat, and get ready to laugh, learn, and appreciate the delicate balance of farming.
Special thanks to Nachurs for sponsoring this episode and keeping the conversation real.
