Agripreneur Podcast

Episode Recap: Agripreneur had the pleasure of sitting down with Jason Mauck, CEO and Farmer of Constant Canopy. Jason has garnered a strong following on Twitter and brings a fresh perspective to the Agriculture game. Phil and him discuss how he got started in agriculture, what’s working for him, and a misguided mindset that is behind many family farms that he had to face when he was younger. Using the experience that he has acquired through the years, Jason explains what he sees happening in the future for not only his business but agriculture as a whole. Later, we learn what farming practices have been very effective for his yield and why trying unconventional farming techniques may not always be a bad thing. We even get an inside look at what his yield drag looks like, what is keeping costs low, and the benefits he’s found with certain practices. Diversification is another topic of discussion in this week’s episode, and Jason tells how he has diversified to keep business going throughout the Winter season.
