Applications available in January. 👏 for announcing this before the election that they're very worried about.
Harvest relief for America’s farmers. Today, @POTUS and @SecRollins announced the Harvest Fuel Relief Program — making $8 BILLION available for one-time payments to farmers facing higher costs and market disruptions. Here’s what that means: ➡️ Payments to help cover a portion of estimated losses for the 2026 crop year. ➡️ Payment amounts based on planted acres, production costs, crop yields, and prices. ➡️ Row crop payment rates announced in November, with details for other eligible commodities to follow. ➡️ Application will be available online using a Login.gov account that is connected to USDA. 🔗 usda.gov/about-usda/news/pre…

Grain will eventually get realtime AI grading. They'll grade each kernel for quality instead of each truckload. It won't be fun.
openai just released Decisions API, Jev-like "system 1" multi-modal model based on GPT6 Luna! Each egg gets cropped and sent to OpenAI (~270ms latency) and returns P(clean, dirty, cracked). One image crop consumes ~280 input tokens (~$0.03/1K imgs). @roboflow RF-DETR for detecting eggs

Compared a couple of other slow harvest years with 26/27. Yeesh! Interesting that 2016/17 was pretty close to average until late Sep and then literally went sideways. Really need some warm dry days without heavy dew.

Vote yes, Mitch. Yes. MITCH, YES!! The green button! GREEN!! No, the other button!! MITCH!! This is the competence level on a farm bill that's 3 yrs past due. We are so cooked.
Republicans have to instruct Mitch McConnell to vote "yes" on a bill after he nearly votes "no" with Democrats

Air strikes and sanctions let politicians look tough without facing hard truths. Military pressure isn’t strategic victory. Stop buying pie-in-the-sky foreign policy on Iran.

~240M adult citizens.. $5K each... $1.2T promise Yeah...we're gonna need to jack up the Canada tariffs a lot higher.
.@POTUS announces the TRUMP DIVIDEND: If Republicans win both the House and the Senate, because of our tremendous economic success, I will issue a dividend to every adult citizen in the United States for $5,000
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The President of the United States has no constitutional or statutory authority to issue a dividend check on behalf of the US Government. Only the Congress can authorize and appropriate these funds. constitutioncenter.org/the-constituti…

U.S. wheat harvest is set to be the smallest in over 50 years, and hard‑red winter wheat hits its lowest point since 1957 — a clear warning sign for the global food system. Are you 'in the Loop'?

Hey @grok you ever seen a tire fire in a hurricane?
History: the Browns are waiving tight end Dae’Quan Wright and, if he clears waivers, he has an agreement in place for the 2026 season to play for LSU, per agents Drew Rosenhaus and Kyle Lincoln. Wright is believed to be the first player who could play for an NFL team, and then go back to play in college.

I tire of this game. Can someone name a specific trade deal (not a "framework") in the last 20 yrs that improved ag exports for more than corn/beans and was more than just a return to normal? We need 50+ deals, but at this point I'd be happy with just 2-3 to start.
Tonight, Canada declined to finalize the trade deal under the terms agreed earlier this week. Despite the U.S. offer to Canada to receive the best treatment of any major exporter to our market, new demands and walk backs of other commitments by Canada have upended the careful balance reached in the past days. In addition, Canada is continuing to maintain its prolonged retaliation against the United States, including, among other things, flat-out prohibitions on certain American goods and services. For decades, Canada has enjoyed the most favorable access to the U.S. market of any country. And from the beginning of President Trump’s trade program, Canada has continued to enjoy the best treatment in the world, even after – like China – retaliating against the United States. This week, the United States agreed to provide even better treatment to Canada, offering significant tariff reductions on steel, aluminum, autos, and lumber. The U.S. offer was also forward looking, and included a historic economic and national security partnership to cooperate on export controls, combat transshipment, enhance digital trade, and align certain external tariffs. The offer would have led to supply chain coordination on aerospace, complementary actions to address unfair trade practices, critical minerals cooperation, increased enforcement against imports produced with forced labor, and the announcement of formal U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) negotiations. This is a missed opportunity for Canada to partner with the United States, which is the fastest growing economy in the G7.

Judging by the wet wipes I just bought, we've got a loooong way to go to make America great again. #Suckaroo
