The COVID-19 pandemic has softened the organic market like
it has conventional prices.
Minnesota organic corn and soybean farmer Carolyn Olson says she has grain in the bin that normally would’ve been shipped out in March.
“One of the places we sell corn to makes our corn into vodka, but they had to shut down that production in order to focus on making hand sanitizer.”
She tells Brownfield they still hope to empty their bins later this month.
