Rural America is in trouble.

Farmers all around the country are struggling to stay in business. Family assets that took generations to build are at risk like never before. We want to tell everyone out there - you are not alone. Thank you to Arkansas farmers Joe Mencer and Jeff rutledge for taking time out of their busy schedule lobbying for the Farm Bill to come talk about what they are feeling and seeing in their communities.
