WATCH: Why more family farms are filing for bankruptcy
The number of American farms struggling to stay afloat is on the rise. Family farm bankruptcy filings last year were up 55% from 2023 and are already trending higher this year.

While bankruptcies are rising, almost $66 billion in agriculture aid passed in President Trump’s ‘big, beautiful bill’ is on the way to help offset farmers’ losses. Could these investments help slow the trend of U.S. farms filing for bankruptcy?

PBS News spoke to three experts to breakdown what’s behind the turmoil and how the Trump administration’s policy agenda could effect the agriculture industry.
