Episode: Farmers Want Transparency With New Fertilizer Bill
Description: Recently U.S. Senator Tammy Baldwin along Chuck Grassley, and Joni Ernst from Iowa introduced a bipartisan legislation to help lower the cost of fertilizer by allowing more transparency for the farmers on market factors causing rising costs. This bill is being endorsed by many groups, including the Wisconsin Corn Growers Association. To give more insight on the need for this bill is WCGA member Shane Goplin who is a farmer with HV Acres LLC. He says the government needs to help “answer the why’s.”See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
