This week on the Scrib & Gib Podcast, we welcome longtime agriculture expert Brent Wink to the show for a conversation that goes way beyond corn and soybeans!

Gibby’s interest in biology and genetics takes center stage as we dive into how crop genetics have changed farming, what GMOs actually are, and whether the things we hear about genetically modified food are fact, fiction, or somewhere in between.

We’ll talk about how farmers develop better crops, the difference between traditional breeding, GMO technology and newer genetic technologies, and some of the biggest misconceptions surrounding the food we eat.

We also put Brent on the spot with some of the common “food and agriculture conspiracy theories” people hear—from GMOs and chemicals to seed companies and what really happens on today’s farms.

Plus, we get Brent’s perspective on the current farming landscape, crop yields, input costs and where agriculture may be headed.

It’s a little science, a little farming, a little conspiracy-busting, and a lot of Scrib & Gib! 🌽🎙️

Tune in and decide for yourself: What do we really know about the food on our plates?
