IARN — A chain is only as strong as its weakest link. We have heard that cliché so much, but we have also seen it happen.

This is not to say that farmers or Ag industry personnel are weak by any means. This means that the more voices that come together the stronger we become. It’s like a braided cable; the individual bands are weak, but when wound together they become very difficult to break. Strength in numbers is a good thing.
