HELPING FARMERS THRIVE - WHILE FARM INCOME HELD STEADY IN 2023, FARM INPUT COSTS CONTINUED TO RISE, PUTTING MANY FARMERS ON A RAZOR-SHARP EDGE. IN ADDITION, FARMERS FACED THE CONSTANT CHALLENGES OF COMPETING IN AN EVER-CONSOLIDATING MARKET THAT FAVORS CORPORATIONS; TRYING TO EARN A FAIR PRICE IN UNFAIR MARKETS; AND WEATHER, INCLUDING EXTREME WEATHER AND NATURAL DISASTERS EXACERBATED BY CLIMATE CHANGE. THE STRAIN IN THE FARM ECONOMY IS NO ACCIDENT; IT IS THE RESULT OF POLICIES DESIGNED TO ENRICH CORPORATIONS AT THE EXPENSE OF FARMERS, RANCHERS AND EATERS. IN RESPONSE, FARM AID CONTINUED TO EXPAND OUR DIRECT FARMER RESPONSE AND INCREASED OUR ADVOCACY OF SOLUTIONS TO FARM POLICY THAT NEEDS A MASSIVE SHIFT IN DIRECTIONONE THAT IS EQUITABLE TO ALL FARMERS AND DELIVERS FAIR PRICES AND COMPETITIVE MARKETS THAT ALLOW FARMERS TO MAKE A LIVING.THROUGH THE 1-800-FARM-AID HOTLINE AND ONLINE REQUEST FOR ASSISTANCE, FARM AID'S HOTLINE OPERATORS LISTEN TO FARMERS AND REFER THEM TO AN EXTENSIVE NETWORK OF FARM AND RURAL SUPPORT ORGANIZATIONS ACROSS THE COUNTRY.
