Max Armstrong talks rural banks, dicamba and a broadcaster's second retirement

Max Armstrong shares news of the demise of banks in rural towns, but there's one fact that's been left out. From This Week in Agribusiness, Max shares the best of 2017 news offering information from Mindy Ward, Missouri Ruralist, who was at ground zero for the dicamba issue that hit Missouri. And he shares information from Prairie Farmer's Holly Spangler on the issue. And a little shop talk about an Illinois broadcaster who is retiring, for the second time.

Midwest Digest is a twice-daily audio feature produced by Max Armstrong, offering news and commentary from across the Midwest.
