It is always fun to co-author something with my friend and colleague, Shannon Ferrell. Every year, we work together on an article for the Southwest Farm Press Outlook Series. This article is an overview of some of the big legal issues we are watching in 2025.

Ag Law in the Field Podcast
Don’t forget, I also host my own podcast! You can listen to Ag Law in the Field on your favorite podcast app or on our website. We were recently a finalist for the Agricultural Podcast of the Year and have had great guests and content already in 2025 including discussions about ag law lessons from the Yellowstone tv series finale, an update on dicamba legal issues, and a chat about pore space and why this is a huge issue for Texas landowners.
