An Illinois farmer is keeping mental health at the top of his mind this planting season.
“Sometimes one phone call can make all the difference in the world,” said Matt Rush.
Rush tells Brownfield pressures this time of year can stack up.
“It is a big deal when farmers are delayed on planting and planting an expensive crop,” he said. “I’m encouraged by the awareness that’s been brought to mental health.”
And the southern Illinois corn and soybean grower says help is always available with farming being a close community.
