01/22/20 - Chickens That Will Change The World
Host and American Family Farmer, Doug Stephan www.eastleighfarm.com updates us on this week's Agriculture News, with more information about the new Trade deal with China and hormones added to Beef. Then, we meet Matt Wadiak, founder and CEO of Cooks Venture. www.cooksventure.com a group of farmers, cooks, and food professionals who couldn’t find what they wanted in the food system, so they are building it themselves from the ground up. Their very special chickens come from an ancestry of breeding heirloom and heritage chickens that have better health and livelihood than conventional chickens. Likewise, because of their pasture access and pedigree, they grow to be stronger, and more flavorful than modern conventional breeds. Finally, Farmer Doug tells us that today's consumer is not the buyer of the past and how Net Neutrality is crippling farmers from keeping up with the latest trends.
