    Great podcast on Agriculture
    Really enjoyed listening to your guest on Teff. I am trying to eat healthier and just ordered some of the product. It was enjoyable to listen to here story about growing a different cash crop. I also enjoyed the podcast on growing food in the commercial buildings. Thanks for what you do to spread the news of great new business ideas in agriculture.

    Keep up on what’s interesting in Agtech
    Always enjoy listening to the show. A great way to get introduced to, and keep up with, innovation in agriculture. Approachable for those outside the industry, so we can better understand how we can continue to feed a growing planet. Especially enjoying the recent episodes on regenerative agriculture and other advances in sustainability.

    Episode 311
    Really enjoying this podcast while I’m out monitoring pest/diseases in grapes! Wanted to share in response to episode 311 that there are commercial vermicompost facilities in northern CA - check out TerraVesco based in Sonoma. Our local growers love it!

    Terrific Insight!
    Tim’s broad spectrum of guests and pointed questions do a fantastic job of highlighting key issues in the ag industry today and how they’re innovatively being addressed. Great listen every time!
  • DeltaOmaha
    The pulse of innovation in agriculture and food
    Tim have managed to have such a wide variety of guests, and hosts each episodes in a thoughtful, inquiring path. Many voices out there are jargon-filled, and definitive in their perspectives. I feel like I’m along with Tom for a learning ride in each episode and it’s always time well spent. Thank you Tim and co-hosts. Lee Addams, Open Trail Partners
  • Mak Hussain_
    Great guests with a host that asks the right questions
    Consistently impressed with this podcast. Tim is great at having a mix of guests and being genuinely curious enough to give space to a range of perspectives without passing judgment. He asks fantastic questions, too, pushing guests to get to the practical realities of the ideas they are talking about
  • AGD Consulting
    Episode 126 - Stephen Hohenrieder
    This episode with Stephen is one of the best I’ve heard describing the methods of investing in a decentralized food system. Tim sets the stage then allows Stephen to lay out his rational for investing in the space in an incredibly clear and logical manner. Highly recommend a listen. Keep up the great work Tim!

    Complexity in Ag
    Complexity has become increasingly more important as agriculture adapts to the tools and models of the 21st century. Tim uses clear, and dynamic approach in his interviews to bring out considerate responses in terms of agriculture. Don’t miss out because the sustainable approach rings true here- everything is truly connected

    Future of agriculture
    Tim does a great job with interviews and covering agrifoodtech topics - one of my favorite podcasts!
  • BosDoc109
    Exceptional resource!
    I am a recent subscriber as I cruise podcasts looking for resources and resource material in the development of ‘Farming for Life’ agricultural center in Lynden Washington. Resources that discuss complex subjects that connect agriculture to the variety of food grown, processed, distributed and consumed. The “Why” in foods chosen including the consumers reasons and perceptions for those choices. This has been an outstanding find. Thank you for your exceptional podcast.
  • Adowell12334
    Hi
    I love this channel. Always having good topics
  • Nina C Bean
    Favorite podcast
    I’m relatively new to the industry so I appreciate the way Tim makes these topics accessible. This podcast stands out because of Tim’s great questions about both business and ag. Keep ‘em coming!
  • jjb1975
    Great show!
    Too often in Ag we get wrapped up in our own operations. We tend to forget to look around at the great stuff happening around us. Listening to this show reminded me to get my eyes and ears up to witness and hopefully create some of the great changes happening in our industry.
  • Theguygrm
    Great Casual Yet Technical Look At AgTech
    The Future of Ag podcast is a great high-level look at what is coming next in agriculture, presented in a way that makes me feel I’m chatting with my best friend. Each podcast is real, having light hearted yet technically deep conversations. The concepts are always thought provoking, yet quick to grasp. If you want to learn more about AgTech, or if you enjoy a fantastic engineer-type talk show, this one will have you hooked.
  • brianboe
    Thanks for your hard work
    While vacation with my family, as they shopped. I listen to all of 2019 podcasts. They are so informative and coming from a farm background it was most enlightening to hear that farmers are not the villains and farm families still produce our food. Thanks for your deep dive into such a wide range of topics.
  • ghjyfhktfbjfd

  • muscat
    Sound quality needs improvement
    Love the content of this podcast!! The only issue is that the people interviewed are often really hard to hear because of the sound quality of the device they are using
  • funcranium
    Best ag podcast- hand’s down!

  • spgillock
    One of The Best Podcasts Out There
    Tim is an incredible host and is always bringing interesting guests on the show. Every episode is packed with great insights from start to finish. If you’re interested in Ag tech or sustainability give this a listen!
  • "Liam"
    The best way to pass time
    Oddly enough I actually work on a golf course, I only have to maintain 200 acres of turf...... every week I listen to Tim and who ever is on and find myself learning not just about the new technology but also about the agriculture industry at all...... I have been recommending this podcast to people not in the industry to listen to this because the way the information is provided..... it’s just more entertaining to listen to than some PowerPoint warrior at a college.
  • KyLe109342
    Great Ag Podcast!
    This is such an informative podcast. I work in the wine industry in western Oregon and have been in the ag industry for 8 years. I really enjoy hearing from growers in the Pacific North West. Learn something new from every episode! Keep them coming!
  • diggerfist
    5 min. Farmer
    Great show. Just found your pod cast. The 5 minute Farm is a great idea. It’s good to hear from someone like myself. I’m starting a small farm to service my community and to hear about others can be vary helpful. Thank you for your show. Mark Oro Bay Farm
  • Jgp55
    Really insightful content
    I’m an early-stage VC investor trying to broaden my knowledge of the agricultural industry and issues. This is the best podcast I’ve found on both broad Ag subjects and how the industry is changing and being disrupted. I learn at least one thing in every episode.
  • farming sodak

  • Wacntn
    Great information source on ag!
    Tim does a great job with a great mix of the various activities going on in agricutlure. I've recently returned to agriculture as a career after a nearly 30 year detour into IT. This podcast has helped me learn about the innnovation and efforts going on worldwide to meet the needs of the planet! Keep up the great podcasts!
  • RandySPerkins
    Just what I was looking for
    I love how Tim has created a one-stop shop to explain how the ag industry adapts and evolves to an increasingly globalized agriculture economy. I grew up on a dairy farm and it's great to look back on the how my parents navigated the business of farming; ensuring that our farm's business model kept us profitable. I'm now a science educator and this podcast makes me want to enter into the area of ag education and/or ag outreach. Well done.
  • shoesjob
    Some real good information here
    Great topics about real life issues and future solutions. Podcasts / Ag / Tech all interesting things that should be a casual topic of today’s discussion. Follow up friday is a nice point to answer questions; build community, and educate further.
  • bdoubleh
    Better than college!
    This podcast is absolutely fantastic! I am confident I have learned more about agriculture through this podcast than I did in 4 years of college. Great job Tim - don’t stop!
  • SaraMich!
    Highly recommend!
    Have been listening to the fantastic Sustainability at Scale series on this podcast - such a welcome, nuanced approach to a topic that can be so polarizing. I highly recommend to people of all different Ag backgrounds and consumers interested in understanding what’s really going on behind some of the labels!
  • The Real Last Cowboy
    I love it!
    I thoroughly enjoy the diversity of the podcast, Tim doesn’t just focus on one type of agriculture; he covers a broad spectrum of all things related to Ag. Over the last year and a half I have personally found Tim to be very accessible, if you have a question about a podcast don’t be afraid to shoot him a message, if he can’t tell you the answer he will connect you with someone that can!
  • jamesdecker2006
    Very worthwhile
    Really fascinating topics and guests from a wide variety of perspectives. It’s a unique opportunity to hear agriculture producers, scientists, and business/industry leaders talk on a high level about agriculture and technology.
  • nicobreeder82
    Very biased
    Sadly too biased in point of view , lack of open mind
  • Cow_ted
    Excellent ag podcast
    This is my favorite ag podcast, I am a little bit of an information nerd and love that this podcast is very informative. Please keep up the good work and looking forward to the next 100 episodes.
  • DDevitt
    The Best Ag Podcast out there!
    Tim...keep up the good work. Your topics are timely, thorough, and it is obvious you have prepped for each interview. The direction of series is a great idea. I enjoyed the block chain series and am now enjoying the discussion on sustainability. Thanks for exploring it from different points of view.
  • Graffte
    Enlightening, stretches the envelope
    Ag innovation presented practically by the people making it happen. Topics inform and stretch thought processes about what’s possible. Enjoy listening every week.
