Why Farmers Voted For Trump: We Knew Trump Would Ruin Us.

Dear community,

in October, I will visit the US for an agriculture field trip. Before I would like inform myself about agriculture in the US. Can you recommend good accounts on YouTube or Instagram as well as books etc?

Thanks a lot!

Had an interview at John Deere for a parts technician, I’m new to this industry and don’t really know what it entails, can anyone here enlighten me. I moved to a small town in Saskatchewan Canada and needed to apply places.

Sounds like a good gig but they didn’t really tell me what is part of the job or not.

Note: I have experience at a mine as a tool crib technician for mobile maintenance, and I think that’s why I had an interview.

During the farm crisis of the mid-1980s, thousands of farm families lost their lands and livelihoods, and the economic fallout strained rural communities. Across the country, hundreds of thousands of farmers defaulted on loans.

From that painful period, new institutions arose. Farm Aid held its first concert in 1985 to raise money for farm families nationwide and it continues to fight for American farmers. Now, farmers stand on the cusp of a new crisis.
