Today I hosted a special hour long AM Minnesota Program Jerry s Top Five AG Stories For 2020. Special thank you to all of our sponsors. The top story was easy, the COVID-19 pandemic and it s affect on all of agriculture. The pandemic seemed to hit livestock producers especially pork producers the hardest. My guest for the top story was Dave Preisler Chief Executive Officer of the Minnesota Pork Producers Association.
My second story was the tremendous financial recovery for most farmers given how low grain and livestock prices were last spring. My guest was Ag Analyst and Vice President of MinnStar Bank Kent Thiesse from Lake Crystal.
