Well good for you trying to help out your fellow American. I do feel for the farmers of America and how a lot operate on good faith and not sure when crops are ready to harvest, who and what will be paid for them. Now fuel, fertilizer and farm equipment is going up to add to their burden. Oh yeah lets not forget about water rights being an ongoing issue as well and now foreign countries are buying American farmland. Oh and last but not least the large corporations that can predict what a farmers harvest would bring and raise farm operation costs just a fraction below what profit might be or maybe the farmer just breaks even. It is no wonder farm bankruptcies were up, hope your buddy can stay afloat till better times arrive
