  • AgTechWatchers: He's a funghi
    Jul 19 2024

    We have a chat with Guy Webb, the founder of Loam Bio. In this podcast, we learn about adding fungal spores along with your seed to increase carbon in soils. This was an interesting chat with a lot of puns.

    This is a novel technology that hopes to add carbon but also increase yields. A must-have listen if you are growing crops.

  • The Agwatchers find love.........
    Jul 9 2024

    A bit more of a lighthearted topic this week. We chat to Mia Ryan, the founder of Howdy. Howdy is a dating app like tinder or grindr but is designed for people in regional areas. If you want tips on dating, Matt and Andrew give their advice. We also discussed red and beige flags, situationships, catfishing, polyamory, wearing crocs on a first date, and a lot more. It's a good, fun episode, and if you are single (or cheating), you should consider getting on the Howdy app.

  • The final end for live sheep exports?
    Jul 2 2024

    Overnight, the senate voted through the bill to ban live sheep exports from Australia. In May 2028, there will be no more sheep going via boat.

    In this podcast, we thought we would have a chat among ourselves about a range of topics: where prices will go, the plan B, changing the government, the timeframe for a ban and a lot more.

    If you are struggling with the impact of this phase out, remember there are people you can chat to. Feel free to contact us, if you need a yarn or to vent.
