Agriculture's mentality and unstated business model has forever been: Make more food because population growth is going to exceed our ability to produce. But what happens when we have adequate production to feed humanity (which we already do) and the population begins to decline (which is about to happen in a couple decades)? Demographic changes are happening fast. Developed nations are getting older, women aren't having enough babies to replace our current population, and eventually we may run out of immigrants to fill our Ag jobs. Todd Thurman joins me to discuss a topic that most people in Agriculture have never even considered — a future with fewer mouths to feed. Sponsored by LandTrust landtrust.com
