What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Rick Jackson visited Cagle’s Farm in Canton, Georgia, to discuss agricultural issues facing the state. He pitched his 'Georgia Grown' relief blueprint, which centers on three proposals: automatic state fuel tax cuts during price surges, protections for agricultural tax exemptions, and establishing localized processing co-ops. The visit took place as diesel prices in Georgia hovered above $6.30 a gallon, and fertilizer expenses added an estimated $20 per acre to harvest costs. Jackson stated he would not criticize the federal government regarding trade tariffs impacting agricultural margins.
