  1. I think this is a great thing because from what i understood its suppose to mainly help farmers who didn't get much money from it's crops.

  3. From what i read it sounds like a great idea but the thing is wouldn't it put us even more into debt. But or else then it sounds like a great idea to give the farmers money to do what they love to do.

  4. I think it's a great think to help farmers to keep their company going because the price of the crops and corn are going down. It's hard for little farmer to face the big society today so I find that help great !

  5. I feel that this could be a good thing! Just like the article says it will be good for farmers who have been farming for many years and already have all of their loans payed off, it might be a problem for farmers that are just getting started. If they come back short or even even in there price they could be in big trouble. Also it costs a lot more an acre than what they are getting paid per acre. So this could help a lot, a little, or not at all. It seems like it just depends on where you are sitting in your life with the farming.
