  • About

    Delaney grew up on a grain and livestock farm in Southeast Iowa and has been involved in agriculture from a very young age. She holds a Bachelor’s of Science degree in Agricultural Sciences and minors in Broadcasting and International Studies from Northwest Missouri State University and a Master’s in Agricultural Communications through Texas Tech University. 

    Delaney strives to bring the most up to date information on the latest “news cycle” in DC politics, commodity markets, and the international agricultural scene through her travels to 23 countries. You may recognize Delaney from her role as former host of the 46-year-old agribusiness show “Market to Market” or from her daily podcast she launched in 2017, Ag News Daily. In 2018 she launched Global Ag Network, a “herd” of agriculturally focused podcasts, which strive to provide entertaining, informative, and essential information to the agricultural industry. 

    In 2020, Delaney took on a new role as Chief Marketing Officer for an ag marketing company out of Des Moines, Iowa called Trader PhD offering commodity advisory services to farmers and ranchers all across the U.S.

    • What are best practices for developing a social media plan? 
    • I know I should be posting on social media, but what do I include?? 
    • I just don’t have the time. What do I do?
    Be prepared to walk away from this session having a plan in place as well as a few posts to go off of for future use. 

    Keynote OR Breakout | Educational | Motivational

    Consumers used to rely on data and scientific evidence to make their buying decisions. Today, the trend is changing. As instant news and information continue to become the norm, how do we in agriculture change and adapt to meet those needs? We are in the midst of a pivotal moment for global agriculture with consumers tastes and preferences changing worldwide. From COVID-19, to African Swine Fever, Delaney exposes her audience to the realities of a transitioning global marketplace.  

    Keynote OR Breakout

    Travelling to 23 countries and 30 some states, Delaney studies agricultural systems on a large scale. U.S. agriculture plays such a vital role in so many countries that the importance sometimes gets lost to producers who are concerned about production on a smaller scale or local level. The purpose of this speech is to discuss several factors revolving around international agriculture such as: trade (TPP, TTIP, etc.), food accessibility, cultural differences, technology, and responses to the Coronavirus pandemic – and to highlight the connection between producers and the global world. 

    Keynote OR Breakout

    As a young entrepreneur, I have been faced with many challenges that I see farmers like my dad facing every day. Farms are similar to startups because they are a business and oftentimes producers forget that they are a business since farming is also a way of life for so many people. In this speech I go through five lessons learned from starting my own company and show the parallels between startups and successful farming.
