It is Dairy Market Friday on this episode of Inside Dairy!

On Friday, ahead of the holiday weekend, we saw a quieter day overall in the markets with mixed action in grains and livestock. The outside markets seemed to stabilize a bit as well with some strength in gold, silver, etc. Tommy Grisafi with AgBull Media and Nesvick Trading Group joins us for some perspective across the markets into the President's Day weekend.

It has been a much quieter week in the cattle markets as we head to a three-day holiday weekend, with cash trade relatively slow this week. Are we nearing a point where we should be concerned? Is the proverbial "check engine light" on in the cattle market? How about the weaker week in the hog trade? Joe Kooima with Kooima Kooima Varilek joins us to discuss.

Also, we share part of the conversation that Susan Littlefield had earlier this week with Darren Frye from Water Street Solutions in Segment Four of today's show.

Friday on AOA, we start the show with a deep dive into the livestock markets and more with Kyle Bumsted from Allendale followed by a look at the latest Ag Economy Barometer with Michael Langemeier from the Purdue Center for Commercial Agriculture. Then in Segment Three, we hear a conversation about the state of beef on dairy as we talk with Delbert Hollis, President of Cattle Marketing Services out of Amarillo, TX during the Cattle Industry Convention last week in Nashville, TN. We follow that up with ag news headlines to close the show.

Feedlot IQ is Ever.Ag's cloud-based feedlot management and analytics platform built to turn day-to-day yard data into decision-ready insight. Ferrando Logar talks more about the program and ease of use for cattle producers with Susan Littlefield during this year's CattleCon 2026 in Nashville, TN.

Trade stability on the line. Enforcement fights ahead. Real stakes for rural America.

As Washington prepares for the mandatory review of the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement, farm groups warn that unraveling the deal could shake an already strained ag economy. We break down the renewal fight with Krista Swanson of the National Corn Growers Association, Shawna Morris of the National Milk Producers Federation, and Alexis Taylor of the International Fresh Produce Association—covering dairy access, biotech corn, ethanol, and the $150 billion in economic activity tied to the trilateral framework.

Why market access to Canada and Mexico isn't just a trade statistic—it's foundational to planting decisions, rural jobs, and long-term investment.
