Liberty, IN | Rural communities farmers back the local economy also. I am not just talking about the ag industry. Local businesses. Then think about the contributions they make to 4H, FFA, youth sports, volunteer fire departments etc. I know we sometimes think we just feed the big dogs by buying ag equipment, fertilizer, and new trucks, but much is gained at the local level to stabilize rural communities where farmers often times are willing to donate more time and money when times are good. Not a lot of high incomes in my 2 stoplight county. I am not about the government intervening by the way. Whether it is bad for me financially or good. I also do not depend on farming as my income either, so I just kind of roll with good and bad.
