AgriTalk PM is an afternoon market program built for the close of trade. Chip Flory starts with the board and works outward from there. Corn, soybeans, wheat, bean meal, bean oil, cattle, feeders, lean hogs, crude oil, equities, and the dollar all move through the conversation as live pieces of the same producer puzzle. The show does not linger over basics. It assumes the audience understands futures, basis, old crop, new crop, export demand, insurance deadlines, USDA reports, and the pressure that weather can put on a marketing plan. That gives the program its speed. A typical episode moves from a dense market rundown into named analyst segments, with guests weighing what price action can and cannot be trusted. The questions are direct. Was the rally cash-led or futures-led? Did crude oil pull grain lower? Are soybean exports reacting to China, Brazil quality, or tariff talk? Should old-crop bushels be sold, protected with puts, or left with upside through calls? Livestock markets get the same practical treatment, especially when cattle or hog futures break sharply from the grain trade. Weather is not scenery here; weather outlooks close many episodes because heat, dryness, severe storms, and precipitation odds can change the next trading day. The show also carries a bit of everyday radio looseness. Basketball, wind, Friday afternoon banter, and first-name banter soften the hard run of prices and reports. The result is not glossy business commentary. It is a working ag-market recap with enough personality to feel human and enough detail to stay useful. Its strongest moments come when the conversation turns from price movement to producer action. AgriTalk PM is for people who want to know what the market did, why it may have done it, and what choices deserve attention before the next open.
Made for: AgriTalk PM is for producers, grain merchandisers, livestock market watchers, crop advisors, and ag-finance professionals who already follow commodity markets. It best suits listeners who want practical afternoon context rather than beginner explanations.
What sets it apart: The show pairs a fast contract-by-contract market close with analyst conversations that keep returning to producer decisions. Its mix of futures, cash markets, weather, policy, energy, exports, and local banter gives it a working-desk feel rather than a polished finance-show tone.
