Former Agriculture Leaders Warn of Crisis Due to Administration Policies
A group of 27 former leaders from major agricultural associations, including the National Corn Growers Association, have expressed serious concerns about the current state of U.S. agriculture. They have sent a letter to the U.S. Senate and House agricultural committees, highlighting the increasing number of farm bankruptcies and declining profits. The group attributes these issues to the current administration's policies, which they claim have increased costs for farm inputs, disrupted markets, and defunded critical agricultural research and staffing. Jon Doggett, former chief executive of the National Corn Growers Association, emphasized the need for open and meaningful conversations with the administration to address these challenges.
