    Farm Policy, USDA Changes & Ice Cream’s Heart Health Twist
    2025/08/13
    Doug Stephan — veteran broadcaster and proud dairy farmer (EastleighFarm.com) — breaks down the week’s top stories impacting family farms across the country.

    This week:
    • Why the term “crisis” may be overused in U.S. agriculture.
    • The USDA’s reorganization plan and what it means for farmers.
    • How the Big Beautiful Bill could affect depreciation and capital gains taxes for farmers selling to other qualified farmers.
    • The Skinny Farm Bill — and the $8 billion needed to fund programs left out of the Big Beautiful Bill.
    • And yes… could ice cream actually be good for your heart? One analyst found that people with Type 2 diabetes who ate small amounts of ice cream a couple times a week had a lower risk of cardiovascular disease.
    It’s the latest ag news with a healthy scoop of Doug’s insight — and maybe a side of ice cream.

  • Labor, Legislation & Livestock: Doug Stephan on the Real State of U.S. Farming

    Labor, Legislation & Livestock: Doug Stephan on the Real State of U.S. Farming
    2025/08/06
    This week, Doug tackles a mix of hot-button issues impacting family farmers across the U.S., offering insight only a hands-on farmer can provide.

    🧠 Episode Highlights:

    🚜 The “Immigration Highway” Crisis
    Doug unpacks the growing confusion and legal challenges facing agricultural employers navigating immigration. He shares the tragic story of a multigenerational cherry farm forced to shut down due to a lack of labor — a painful example of a broken system. 🔍 “We need a clear and fair path to a stable farm workforce,” Doug says, “because most of our farm laborers today are foreign-born — and without them, farms fail.”

    📜 The “One Big Beautiful Bill”
    Though it’s not technically a farm bill, Doug explains how this sweeping piece of legislation will have a greater impact on agriculture than anything else passed this year — from labor to land use, sustainability, and economic support.

    🥩 Doug’s Take: U.S. Beef & Imports
    In his closing thoughts, Doug zeroes in on the beef industry — questioning the role of imports, their impact on American ranchers, and what consumers should know about where their meat comes from.
    💡 Doug brings real-world experience and common sense to the issues that matter most to family farmers — from the ground up.
