11/27/24 - Host and American Family Farmer, Doug Stephan www.eastleighfarm.com shares the news affecting small farmers in America, including: Who will lead Trump’s USDA? The Federal Trade Commission is continuing to probe the right to repair for farmers, farm groups urging the Biden administration to make sure renewable fuel tax credits prioritize American crops, most farmers are relying on off-farm jobs to rely on their primary source of income to keep their farms running, and barriers women face entering farming. Doug discussed that, too. Then, we welcome back Alexis Burnham of Burnham Orchards (BurnhamOrchards.com) to the program. Alexis, a 7th generation family farmer, previously discussed her family’s nearly 211 year old farm, which you can hear HERE. This time, the conversation surrounds female farmers, the opportunities of getting educated in ag, and how family farmers can continue with added benefits throughout the whole year when their primary crop is out of season. Then Farmer Doug opines why people want to become farmers or why multi-generation farmers want to stay on the farm. While it’s difficult to make a living in today’s society, it’s truly a passion and unconditional love for so many.
