Farmer says infrastructure investments provide competitive edge

Continued infrastructure investments in the U.S. are critical to competition in the global market, according to Indiana Soybean Alliance Chair Mike Koehne.

“We always talk about updating, improving, and doing maintenance on locks and dams, inland waterways, rural roads and bridges, and the rail system,” he says. “We’re always trying to have (the administration) hopefully improve that because that’s our competitive edge. We can ship grains easily and efficiently throughout our country.”

A group of Indiana farmers, including Koehne, observed Argentina’s ag infrastructure and transportation during a recent trip to the country.
