## Resource

Farm4Profit welcomes Raymond Chung, founder and CEO of AcreHedge, along with Chief Technology Officer Todd Larson and Chief Media Officer Zoe Kent, to discuss how prediction markets can help farmers hedge risk, forecast major agricultural events, and make more informed business decisions. The conversation explores everything from weather and commodity prices to crop insurance gaps, AI, and why "the wisdom of the crowd" may outperform individual experts.
