## Resource

CALVES, CO-OPS, AND COMMUNITY PUSHBACK Trent Loos is joined by Melissa Hart, calling in from Ohio, for a hard-hitting conversation about the forces reshaping rural America. They dig into the proposed merger between Select Sires and ST Genetics, currently under DOJ antitrust review, and raise new questions about genetic ownership. Although the real meat of the conversation is about the corruption in permitting AI Data Centers, Wind and Solar.
