Farm leaders warn Congress of agriculture crisis

“The policies of this administration have caused tremendous harm to U.S. agriculture,” the letter states. “Farmer bankruptcies have doubled, barely half of all farms will be profitable this year, and the U.S. is running a historic agriculture trade deficit.”

Included among the 27 signers were leaders from corn, soybean, pork, barley, wheat, dairy and biofuel industries. Joining them were former government officials from both political parties with ag market and farm policy expertise. 

Remember when the president of the soy bean farmers association was asked why he and his organization was endorsing Trump after being hurt by his first round of tariffs and the idiot said he'd trusted Trump tariffs this time would be different?
