Our mission is to provide farms and operators an independent and unbiased outlet for information related to increasing the profitability of their farming operation. We will be providing farms and operators of all sizes and experience levels access to the latest trends, projections, and the tools necessary to increase farming profitability.   We will take each episode to deliver latest news, what's working for active farms, and a topic of focus each episode.  Remember, if you aren't farming for profit you won't be farming for long.

In this episode, we sat down with Clayton Lind, founder of Atlas Media Solutions, who shared his inspiring journey of transitioning from a farmhand to a media entrepreneur dedicated to spreading awareness about agriculture. Clayton's passion for storytelling drove him to scale his business, aiming to reach 100 million people online by 2024 and produce Netflix-level pro-ag documentaries by 2025-2026. Through Atlas Media Solutions, Clayton crafts high-quality digital media to showcase the agriculture industry's story, helping clients better connect with consumers. We explored Clayton's background and how his farmhand experience during the pandemic shifted his perspective on agriculture. He highlighted the importance of addressing misconceptions about food origins and empowering consumers through knowledge. Clayton also discussed the role of technology in shaping agriculture's future and shared tips for supporting sustainable practices. Transitioning from a one-man operation to a team of three posed challenges, but Clayton overcame them, offering advice to aspiring entrepreneurs in agriculture. Tune in as we unravel Clayton's journey and the challenges and opportunities of bridging the gap between consumers and the agricultural industry.<ul><li>www.johndeere.com</li><li>www.meridianmfg.com</li><li><a href="http://www.terraplexag.com/">www.terraplexag.com</a></li><li>www.agleader.com</li></ul>Don’t forget to like the podcast on all platforms and leave a review where ever you listen!
