Description
There are many claims that there are significant economic problems impacting agricultural producers. Are these claims justified? Is it accurate to view the rural economy as synonymous with the farm economy? What is the real condition of the farm economy and how should it influence policymakers, especially in light of the development of a new farm bill? This expert panel will explore these issues and separate the myths from the facts.
