Q: How are US farmers doing? A: Depends on how big they are.
The USDA’s now-crippled Economic Research Service has published some reports on farm income.

This is Big Ag, of course. As the Heritage Foundation enjoys pointing out:

Another reason why Big Ag is doing so well is the amount of money poured into it by the Trump administration. Recall this Wall Street Journal chart from a previous post.

Oh for an agricultural policy that supports growing food for people, not feed for animals or fuel for cars.
Biden administration: get busy!
