Summary

Farm bankruptcies in the US have risen by 50 percent in the past year. Soybean farmers lost an average of $100 per acre in 2025, according to the Department of Agriculture, while corn growers are set to lose $150 per acre this year. Meanwhile, the national beef herd is at its lowest level since 1950 and retail prices have jumped by 40 percent in the past 18 months. Freddy Gray is joined by author and farmer Joel Salatin who wrote about this in the Spectator World magazine. Become a Spectator subscriber today to access this podcast without adverts.
