This episode explores why agriculture has become a major target for cybercrime. Chris Sherman of Tech Support Farm explains real-world risks—including ransomware, phishing, spoofing, and social engineering—and connects them to everyday farm operations, from shared shop access and weak passwords to aging equipment, email habits, and connected cameras. The central takeaway: farms are businesses with valuable assets, high-value transactions, and open workflows, making them attractive targets.

Jason and Bridgette host Drew Wervin and Chris Huffman of Central Ag Consulting for a practical conversation about the Trusted Advisor Partnership (TAP) and how it is helping farmers adopt conservation practices that reduce erosion and improve soil management. The episode focuses on real farm-level implementation, especially in sugar beet, wheat, soybean, and canola systems across the Red River Valley and surrounding areas. We discuss how TAP works, what kinds of practices are eligible, and why crop consultants are the key bridge between growers, funders, and conservation outcomes.
