Shutdown tests farmers’ loyalty as Trump visits their annual convention
President Donald Trump seeks to win farmers loyalty with his visit to the American Farm Bureau Federation’s annual convention in Lousiana. The president in his speech did his best to reassure farmers and ranchers who are beginning to feel the pinch of the partial government shutdown. The president delivered remarks Monday afternoon before an overwhelmingly friendly audience of members of the country's largest farm group. But with the longest shutdown in U.S. history now in its 24th day, local Farm Service Agency offices have been shuttered for weeks, locking out farmers from getting loans and other help with their operations and many still grapple with the impact of Trump's trade battles with China. President Trump pledged that his policies would favor the agriculture industry as his administration is focused on fighting for America's great farmers and fixing broken trade deals that are horrible referring to Canada, China and the European Union (EU).
