How tariffs, tech, and the MAHA movement are reshaping farming

What does the future of farming look like as tariffs rise, AI robots move in, and the “Make America Healthy Again” movement gains steam?
In this episode of the Collapse Life podcast, host Zahra Sethna sits down with Chris Rawley, Founder and CEO of Harvest Returns, a platform that connects investors with regenerative farms and agribusinesses. Rawley shares how farmers are navigating shifting policies, why indoor farming still hasn’t cracked the code, and how investors can support a healthier, more resilient food system. This conversation reveals what’s really happening behind the grocery store shelves — and why it’s time to pay attention. Because agriculture isn’t just about food — it’s about our future.
Key topics discussed:
• Impact of tariffs on American agriculture
• Shifting consumer preferences and the “Make America Healthy Again” (MAHA) movement
• Barriers to regenerative agriculture: lack of standard definitions, scalability, and labeling
• Harvest Returns' investment model, including regenerative ag and private credit offerings
• Lab-grown meat and synthetic milk: hype, skepticism, and consumer resistance
