What we learned in farm country

John Blanchfield

American Bankers Association, 2001, vol. 14, issue 3

Abstract: What was immediately apparent during a recent tour of farm country is how incredibly complicated it is to design an ag policy for a nation that has some of the most diverse agriculture in the world. Drought, foreign competition, changes in consumer habits, emerging technology, energy shortages, and incomprehensible government policies all conspire to make the business of financing agriculture one of the most challenging.
