Show Notes
This week the house voted down the first draft of Farm Bill 2018. What does this mean for people involved in Ag? Why should taxpayers care about the Farm Bill? (hint, because it effects a LOT of non farm stuff!). And what should Ag expect moving forward? My guest is my brother, Eric Mason — 32 year veteran of the Farm Service Agency. We discuss USDA issues, the pending Farm Bill, and it's impact on the business of Agriculture. Please share this episode with your non -Ag friends. It's a great discussion with Farm Bill facts, insights, and a few opinions. And you get to hear from one of my siblings!
