- Title: From the Farm to the Frontlines: How Global Tensions Are Reshaping Ag Input Markets

- August 13 – Donna Moenning, The Center for Food Integrity (CFI)
- Title: Navigating Today’s Conversations about Food & Farming

- August 20 – Arlan Suderman, StoneX
- Title: Market Outlook: Grain Marketing in Trump’s New Economy
- Description: Price is still a function of supply and demand, but the flow of money both in and out of today’s commodity markets dramatically changes how the markets manage supply and demand, as influenced by monetary policy, mounting fiscal debt, and rising geopolitical risks that are realigning global trading partners. All of this is looked at through the filter of new tariffs, trading agreements, and President Trump’s feud with the Federal Reserve over interest rates. I’ll put it all into perspective to look at the challenges and opportunities for the marketing year ahead
