In this week's North American Ag Spotlight podcast Chrissy Wozniak celebrates a milestone 200th episode by exploring a beloved agricultural tradition, the Arizona National Livestock Show. Joining her is Tyler Grandil, Executive Director of the show, who shares his journey from an FFA member with a passion for livestock to leading the largest livestock show in the Southwest.
Tyler provides insight into what makes the Arizona National unique—its focus on family, tradition, and innovation. He discusses how the event balances its deep roots in Arizona’s heritage with modern technology and outreach efforts, from Farming Simulator games to broader marketing strategies that connect agriculture with consumers.
The conversation also highlights the challenges and opportunities facing the livestock industry, from ensuring an affordable food supply to addressing the disconnect between consumers and production agriculture. Tyler encourages young people to explore careers in agriculture through internships and emphasizes the importance of promoting agriculture’s positive impact on society.
