After the election, analysts are trying to read the tea leaves for any clues about the economy. CoBank Knowledge Exchange Division Manager Tanner Ehmke offered his thoughts at the Minnesota Ag and Food Summit. “With a Biden Administration and a Republican-controlled Senate, people in the business community are saying this could be the best of both worlds. We lose some of the uncertainty on trade and you have Mitch McConnell putting the handcuffs on Biden and saying no to new taxes.” The government stepped in to help farmers in the past two years with MFP payments, CFAP payments and increased food purchases. Ehmke does not expect that kind of intervention in the future.
