When will Congress wise up and change their methods of farm subsidies. The current method only helps agrobusiness.

Diversity verses big bucks ( though I don't suppose the farmers see a fair share of the big bucks there either)

In the Bootheel of MO., because of the rich land, they rotate crops, corn, soybeans, rice, cotton, but its still all row crops--there is some truck farming, vegetables, strawberries, watermelons, cantelopes, but to have that rich farm land and rotate between cattle and row crops--doesn't seem to make common sense. There are plenty of places in MO. that growing row crops will actually cause the land to erode--and most farmers on that land raise trees or beef or dairy cattle or let it lay fallow.
