It’s setting up to be a challenging year for farm economics. Add to that: it’s an election year, Washington DC is as dysfunctional as ever, and we still don’t have a Farm Bill — which was supposed to have been passed last year.

Those questions and more are addressed as Damian brings back a friend of the show, Jim Wiesemeyer, Policy Analyst for Pro Farmer and Farm Journal.
