In this Episode 28 of The Truth About Ag, co-hosts Evan Shout and Kristjan Hebert sit down with their first repeat guest, Dean Klippenstine, partner and business Advisor with MNP’s Agriculture team, for a wide-ranging and candid conversation about the financial realities shaping Canadian agriculture today.
Hear how national economic trends are influencing farm-level decisions, what the Canadian election could mean for fiscal policy, and why interprovincial trade barriers continue to hold producers back. They chat about the complexities of AgriStability and other risk management tools, questioning whether the current systems are doing enough, or doing too much, to support growth and resilience in the sector.
From inflation and interest rates to farm finance, insurance, and real estate, this episode offers both big-picture insights and practical takeaways. If you’re trying to make sense of your own numbers — or just want to understand where agriculture is headed — you won’t want to miss this one.
The Truth about Ag podcast is hosted by Evan Shout and Kristjan Hebert of Farmer Coach and Hebert Grain Ventures. Each episode aims to bring you closer to the heartbeat of agriculture through candid conversations and honest discussions.
