Farmers lost some of their market when USAID non longer helped hungry people access food. Schools in this country lost help in providing lunches to hungry children. These were huge contracts for American farmers. Suicide rates for farmers greatly accelerated when they were stuck with harvests with no markets. I feel for everyone, but showing the local impact might make a point for maga to learn the error of their ways.
