Sen. Tester on Tariffs: We’re Going to Lose a Lot of Farmers if We Don’t Get Some Good Policy from the W.H.

RUSH EXCERPT:
TESTER: "Well, I think so far, to be honest with you, I think most of them still are. I think it takes time for this uncertainty in the tariff situation that Trump is, you know, putting tariffs on one day and taking tariffs off the next day. That’s going to that’s going to impact our markets. It’s going to take a bit to do it. Soybeans. It’s already happened. But wheat and corn it will take a bit of time. And I think when it starts hitting people in the wallets they start paying attention. And I just don’t see any way that this is not going to start hitting farmers in the wallet. And here’s the problem, Alex. There’s not a lot of profit margin in production agriculture. There’s going to be we’re going to lose a lot of farmers if we don’t get some good policy and some forward thinking from the White House when it comes to raising food in this country."
