“And we’re not sure if it’s silver or dark yet because we have little glimpses of optimism that progress is being made on trade, but we’re not there yet.”
That’s Rod Hebrink with Compeer Financial, which serves Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Illinois.
He tells Brownfield dairy and grain farms seem to be impacted the most by trade disruptions.
