FOX Nation will debut Dirty Money, an all-new documentary hosted and executive produced by multi-platinum country music star Brantley Gilbert on Tuesday, August 11. As the agricultural industry faces rising costs and mounting economic pressures, the 90-minute documentary takes viewers inside the lives of America's farmers and explores the challenges threatening the future of one of the nation's most essential industries. A first look is now available here.
From Tennessee’s struggling family farms to California’s sprawling orchards, Dirty Money immerses viewers in the lives of farmers who are navigating a critical crossroads. Through firsthand accounts and untold stories, Gilbert spotlights the economic challenges, everyday difficulties and harsh realities that farmers are facing across the country. The documentary was directed by Shaun Silva and produced by Don Lepore and Jake Allyn. Executive producers include Gilbert and Silva, alongside Three Son Films, Aaron Keiser and Keith J. Leman.
In commenting on the documentary, Gilbert said, “Dirty Money is about giving farmers the opportunity to tell their own stories and shine a light on the realities they deal with every day, from rising costs to protecting the lands that have been in their families for generations. Whether you grew up on a farm or have never set foot on one, I hope people walk away with a better understanding of the challenges these families face and why protecting the future of American agriculture matters to all of us.”
