U.S. agriculture is entering one of the most transformative periods in its history. Harnessing the Storm explores the six powerful macro forces reshaping global demand, production, and competitiveness — and what they mean for the future of American farming and ranching.

This session distills insights from the Future State of Ag Report, a forward looking- analysis that traces how global affluence, geopolitical realignment, human health pressures, climate volatility, technological acceleration, and shifting ownership patterns will converge over the next 15+ years. Together, these forces are driving a structural shift that will redefine how U.S. agriculture competes and innovates on the world stage.

Attendees will leave with a sharper view of the risks and opportunities ahead — and how producers, agribusinesses, and policymakers can position themselves to thrive in a rapidly changing global environment.
