Host and American Family Farmer, Doug Stephan www.eastleighfarm.com begins with news about dust storms across Tennessee farms cause 70 vehicle pile-up, 7 deaths and lawsuits against the farmers, Chinese owned Smithfield Foods closes 37 of their plants, Safeway grocery stores recalls oatmeal cookies and mid-May frosts takes it's toll on New England produce. Next, we meet Bill Short a family farmer in Franklin, TN and developer Brian Wright. The Short family plans to turn their 200-acre farm into an agrihood. The family has owned the farm since the late 1800s. They’ve had dairy cows, beef cattle, hogs, two kinds of sheep, every kind of chicken and fowl you can think of, and were growing and sustaining the crops that sustained those animals. The family plans to say goodbye to traditional farm and transform it into an agrihood. Learn all about their plans. Finally, Farmer Doug opines about what he calls "The Ridiculous Farm Bill."
