I’m honored: Frankly Speaking named an ACN must-read

Hi manoj,

I wanted to share some exciting news with you.

The Agricultural Communicators Network recently released its 2026 ACN Book List, and I'm honored that Frankly Speaking was selected as the #7 must-read by fellow ag communicators.

When we put this book together, we gathered more than 600 "Frankly Speaking" columns that have appeared in No-Till Farmer since we launched the magazine in 1972. Looking back over 50+ years of writing, I'll admit there are times I've contradicted myself, because agriculture, business and life keep changing. That's part of the journey. For farmers, the book serves as a living history of the no-till movement.

If you haven't had a chance to read (or listen) yet, this recognition from ACN feels like a great reason to add it to your 2026 reading list. The book is now available in print and audio, so you can enjoy it in whatever way fits your day.

Thank you for your continued support over the years.
