The federal government just passed a $2 trillion relief package in response to the coronavirus pandemic. 23.5 billion of those dollars are specifically oriented to production Agriculture with another $359 billion devoted to small business loans. What does this mean for you and the business of Ag? Jim Wiesemeyer, Washington DC policy analyst for Pro Farmer joins me to share insights and information about the programs. This episode is a bit long, but the information is timely and important. As rural America suffers economic setback there is an opportunity to utilize SBA backed loans to boost our economy and - if used for certain applications - the loans become grants. Hope you find value in this podcast!
