Why Your Groceries Might Cost More Soon

Heads up: The USDA just dropped a rule that stops considering race and gender for farm aid, which could hit Black farmers hard. That means fewer grants and less support for the folks growing food in underserved communities. If you’ve noticed fresh produce getting pricier or harder to find, this could be why. Farmers say these changes make it even tougher to keep food on our tables, especially in areas already struggling with food deserts. #Business #Industry #FoodForThought

Would You Trust an Electric Big Rig?

Linfox, a major Aussie shipping company, just ordered 30 electric semi-trucks from Volvo—think of it as swapping gas guzzlers for giant, quiet Teslas. These trucks will haul goods between cities, not across the whole country, but it’s a big signal: even heavy haulers are going electric. If these rigs prove themselves, expect more companies to follow, and maybe faster EV charging stations for everyone. Would you drive an EV if charging took just 5 minutes? #Business #Industry #ElectricVehicles

Ever wondered if having a solar farm next door is good or bad for your wallet? Virginia Tech found that farmland near solar sites actually goes up in value, but homes nearby can see a dip—about 5%—for a few years. The catch? Those prices bounce back in the long run.

Are We Really Ready to Go Cashless?

Ever been told 'card only' at your local café? You’re not alone—over half of us have hit a spot that won’t take cash lately. While tapping your card is super convenient, a lot of people still want the option to pay with coins and notes—especially for budgeting or when tech glitches out. The big worry? Going totally cashless could leave some folks behind, like older people or anyone who struggles with digital payments. So, maybe keep a fiver in your wallet, just in case! #Business #MakeMoney #MoneyMatters
