Summary
Farmers are supoosed to share $12 billion dollars to make up for lost markets, higher costs and lower prices due to President’ Trump’s global trade war. The Wall Street Journal editorial said President Trump said he was “delighted to give American Farmers $12 Billion” in economic Assistance. The President of the the American Soybean Assoiation told CNN that this was just “a bandaid on an open wound” because what farmers want is an opportunity to make a living, to make a profit from the market, “not being dependant on the next program to keep us from bleeding to death.” Blake Hurst, Missouri soybean farmer, substack author, sometime guest editorial writer to the Walls Street Journal and friend of Farm To Table Talk has some strong feelings and insights he shares with Farm To Table Talk.
