Paris Farm Show Shock: Drones, Disease, and a Troubling Shift in Agriculture
The Paris Farm Show saw a stunning 28% drop in attendance, raising serious questions about the future of farming events and public trust. While officials blame school schedules and outbreaks like lumpy skin disease, Trent and Teresa dig deeper into what’s really happening behind the scenes.
They expose the growing use of drone surveillance and thermal imaging to track and vaccinate cattle—technology that may sound advanced but sparks real concerns about privacy, government overreach, and control over food production. The conversation intensifies as they highlight how real animals are being replaced by holograms, including a controversial Brahmin cattle mascot tied to global beef promotion.
This hard-hitting discussion also tackles the rising pressure from lab-grown protein alternatives and the potential threat to traditional farming. From disease management to digital agriculture, Trent and Teresa connect the dots on how innovation, policy, and global influence are reshaping the industry—and not always in ways that benefit producers.
