Hope Kirwan reports:
Les Danielson is a grain and dairy farmer from Cadott who sits on the board of his local supply cooperative. Speaking during the town hall, he said his co-op’s most recent meeting was focused on the availability of potash fertilizer in this season. The critical product mainly comes from Canada and would be directly affected by 25 percent tariffs threatened by the Trump administration. 
“As we go into planting season, a lot of the co-ops have their sheds full of potash right now,” Danielson said during the meeting. “But those sheds have to be turned two or three times, meaning we can’t store everything. It would be nice if we could just bring it across the border, have it and not worry about the tariffs.” 
He said the tariffs have also created uncertainty around how much the fertilizer will end up costing farmers.
