About this episode
The episode discusses potential easing of farm equipment costs, Pseudorabies in pigs, storm damage claims, crude oil market trends, and weather forecasts.
Farm equipment costs could ease some if a successful House farm bill amendment survives in a final law. RFD Radio Network's Washington correspondent Matt Kaye reports. Dr. Jim Lowe, University of Illinois, talks about Pseudorabies making headlines last week in the pig business. Jesse Kohlbecker, Vice President of Claims and Client Services at Country Financial, talks about the claim process following storm damage across the state. Dale Durchholz, Grain Cycles, joins the program to discuss crude oil markets, which he describes as the "dominant feature" of market movement. Meteorologist Paul Otto takes a look at the forecast.
