American Farm Bureau has released its first assessment of the impact on farmers and ranchers as the nation addresses the coronavirus pandemic.
President Zippy Duvall says AFBF has been in contact with administration officials about the challenges farmers and ranchers are facing.
“I’ve been on the phone with Ag Secretary Perdue conveying our concerns and all the concerns we’re hearing from our state farm bureaus, we’ve been in communication with the White House, and we’ve been in communication with congress and all levels of government that may have to do with issues that are facing or could face agriculture in the days to come,” he says.
