Leesburg, Ohio | I don't see what's so hard to understand about it being harder for young farmers if there were no crop insurance subsidy...younger farmers generally (not always) have a much weaker balance sheet than older, established farmers.
The weaker the balance sheet, the more an operation needs crop insurance (less ability to make it through a "disaster" year and still be in business the next year).
The more established farm with a better balance sheet can absorb a bad year or two without needing an insurance claim to make it through. | |
