Joseph Kerns has more than 40 years of experience in agricultural markets, spanning the matrix from grain and feed and inputs to the livestock sector — he has traded them all. He recently transitioned from his role as President of the Livestock Division at Ever.Ag, his new endeavor is aimed at giving back to the production community through a series of structural changes that are necessary for progress and profits. Joe travels the world in an attempt to understand various markets. He is still thoroughly confused by the behavior of the Chinese and is working on his Portuguese so he can someday move to Sao Paulo.

He lives in Huxley, IA with his wife, Laura, and attempts to keep up with their 10 children.
