Mid-west Farm Report - Madison

Because hemp production is still viewed as a "research pilot" project - farmers and processors cannot insure their barns, grow houses, or any facility that may be storing the crop.  It's still considered a controlled substance, and deemed uninsurable.  Wisconsin's Rural Mutual Insurance is standing ready though, with policy coverage options, just as soon as Wisconsin Department of Ag officials get the blessing from USDA. Weather, and developing news about the meeting between President Trump and President Xi being delayed are the newsmakers in the market today. HAPPY NATIONAL AG DAY!
