Agriculture
My father was a farmer and since he passed I have been thrust into the role of maintaining our family farm. Agriculture has been the lynchpin of this community’s economy since it was settled centuries ago, and for good reason. Our farmers produce dairy, wheat, soybeans, corn, beef, pork, poultry—the list could go on forever. I will do everything in my power to support those farmers, whether through farm subsidies, championing investment into new production methods, strengthening networks between producers and purchasers, or whatever else is needed for a 21st century ag economy.
