    Today we talk contract broiler farming! This is the type of farming famous for "giant barns full of chickens that the farmers don't own." If you've ever wondered why farmers would keep farming in a way that "everyone just knows" makes them poor, this episode digs into why!


    Joining us today is @Woofpickler- farm kid, ag business owner, & former combine tech. We'll have a good time pulling some themes out of the contract broiler business and tying them into the ag sector at large.
