However, many American farmers have been dealing with #Farmaggedon here in the US for well over 12 months because of Trump’s trade war with China where China refused to buy American pork or soybeans, bad weather conditions all over the US for farmers and Wisconsin dairy farmers not being able to pass along cost increases to the US consumer for milk.
