MINNEAPOLIS – Farmers from across Minnesota gathered this weekend to discuss challenges facing their industry and how they can address them.
Leaders of the Minnesota Farmers Union say the high input prices for fuel and fertilizer are squeezing many members who argue they are often unfairly blamed for high grocery prices.
They also expressed concern over President-elect Donald Trump’s call for tariffs of up to 80 percent on Chinese goods which they say could hurt farmers and consumers.
