State Farmers See No Quick Solution to Strike
Pennsylvania farmers sympathize with the national strike called by the American Agriculture Movement but doubt it will solve price and cost issues. They cite government meddling as a barrier and stress they can manage farms to produce quality food at reasonable costs, despite shared concerns over the gap between producer prices and input costs.
