DTN’s 2024 Virtual Ag Summit is a wrap, and this year’s event included a gripping conversation between DTN Progressive Farmer’s Senior Editor Dan Miller and a couple of the honorees in the 2025 class of America’s Best Young Farmers and Ranchers.
Today, we’ll hear the second half of the conversation with Emily Mullen, a dairy farmer from Ohio, and Ben Neale, a cattleman from Tennessee. We’ll dig back into the stories of these operations, talking through how Ben and Emily have dealt with public perceptions of their work, and the luck they’ve had opening up their farms to visitors.
Then, they’ll discuss the challenges they’re facing, from labor in all the different areas of their businesses to input costs and the uncertainties of consumer sentiment. They wrap up with a conversation about financing the farm and where they go for the best advice.
