Why exclude certain payments? Grain bin loans, operating loans, beginning farmer loans, subsidized insurance, ldp, arc, plc, pik, direct, sdrp, mfp, ecap, erp, eqip etc etc etc. why differentiate? Some people use them all, some use none. Farmers are along for the ride, that is the answer. You can’t justify something you can’t control. Either can it all, or be quiet is my opinion.
I suppose so long as farmers are being used as pawns in the nations global negotiations then some financial compensation isn't really that unfair, is it? Soybeans fall to $5.00 and corn to $2.00 because we're locked out of the market would make for a pretty hairy situation for more than a few guys. Sucks to be a price taker, not a price maker. |
