This segment sums me up quite well. Thanks, @MoRocca and CBS. You also get a look at my Dahlia singing (and me at the piano).

My latest article in the @ConversationUS "Canada is kicking its US booze habit as trade tensions persist" highlights the significant decline of American beer, wine, and spirits in the Canadian market due to trade war 2.0.

I spent time at The University of Memphis today for their “Timber Talks,” visiting with folks about the future of Tennessee forestry and the lumber industry.

Tennessee rice. You heard that right.

I visited @tennemorice in West TN when the Schultz family runs the only rice farm AND mill in our state, handling everything from field to final product.

That’s how you keep agriculture local, strong and growing.

It was great being a part of this @Freakonomics Radio podcast. #bourbon #whiskey

Bourbon is built on time.

You make it today … and hope the market still wants it years from now.

That works beautifully when demand is growing. It’s a lot harder when it’s not.

[Freakonomics @Freakonomics]

Right now, there are roughly 16 million barrels of bourbon aging in Kentucky, far more than there were just a decade ago. At the same time, demand is softening, tariffs are complicating global trade, and producers are being forced to rethink what comes next.

So what happens when an industry built on patience runs into a timing problem?

This week’s episode looks at the economics of bourbon, from why it’s so concentrated in Kentucky to what happens when a boom turns into a glut.

@TitusAwokuse @AAEA_Economics Congrats @TitusAwokuse.

[Andrew Muhammad (@UTAgTrade) @UTAgTrade]

The mockery ends now! 🙃 Here I show how the now infamous USTR equation can be derived using basic supply and demand. I only needed a made up theorem and a somewhat made up rule. @ChadBown and @paulkrugman, #ChatGPT is not this clever! 🙂

[Andrew Muhammad (@UTAgTrade) @UTAgTrade]

Very smart people have been laughing at USTR's approach to deriving reciprocal tariffs. It is uncalled for and unfair! One must invoke the "Mercantilist Trade Deal" Theorem and the "Professor, can we cease and desist with this nonsense" Rule. The rest is basic derivations.

No more margaritas? 'Canada and Mexico – two of the top U.S. trading partners – accounted for nearly half of the US$12 billion in distilled spirits the U.S. imported in 2024.' https://t.co/XC9r1gTRhs #drinkhistory #foodhistory #tariffs #Canada #Mexico

Wrapping up the week in Kenya with an excellent workshop alongside ILRI, KALRO, and USDA/FAS! It’s been a rewarding experience learning about diverse livestock systems and forage production.
