Today, we’re looking at the data behind the headlines. David Widmar, managing partner at Agricultural Economic Insights, breaks down trends in the farm economy to help producers and others in the industry align with the current market conditions.

One of the headlines we discuss today: How do data centers or renewable energy arrays fit in the ag landscape?
