"We need help." That's what farmers across America are saying as they face one of the worst agricultural profit collapses in decades.
In 2025, a devastating combination of tariffs, inflation, and broken supply chains has wiped out farm income across the United States.

Export markets have dried up, input costs have soared, and government aid has been too little, too late.
Many farmers who supported tariffs and trade wars in the name of protecting American agriculture are now rethinking everything. What they hoped would protect them has instead become a financial disaster, and their patience — and savings — are gone.
