How Government Payments Impact Farmers: Subsidies, Supply, and Sustainability
Just before Christmas 2024, the federal government unveiled a $31 billion aid package for American farmers—$10 billion in direct payments and $21 billion in disaster relief for the past two years. But here’s the twist: even more funding might be on the horizon. In this episode, Damian Mason is joined by Paul Neiffer, the Farm CPA, and Chris Barron of Ag View Solutions for a deep-dive into the long-term effects of government farm payments. They explore how such payouts historically boost supply, sustain operations that might otherwise shutter, and often become a recurring fixture in agriculture. Tune in to understand the implications of these subsidies and what they mean for the future of farming.
