2020 threw one obstacle after another at many livestock producers.
Willie Morris, who owns a cow/calf farm in northeast Iowa, says last year was tough on everybody.
“Especially on us farmers, trying to market things in an environment like 2020 was, it’s just been a challenge throughout. Whether it be marketing your livestock or trying to lock in your feedstuffs, it’s all been challenging.”
He tells Brownfield restaurant closures and consumer shifts did open some doors locally.
