Chip and Karla Bailey own KC Bailey Orchards in Williamson, New York, where they grow apples. They\u2019re proud to help provide for their neighbors as well as customers across America, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic.<\/p>\n

The past few months have resulted in some dramatic changes in our daily lives, but for America\u2019s farmers, like the Baileys, there are still crops to be planted, fields to be fertilized and apple trees to be pruned.<\/p>\n

The Baileys recently wrote an op-ed<\/a> published in their local paper, the Times of Wayne County, talking about the essential work America\u2019s farmers and ranchers continue to perform at this critical moment:<\/p>\n

This crisis has demonstrated the importance of supporting our farmers and ensuring that we have a stable, safe and affordable food supply. <\/em><\/p>\n

But with farming comes immense risk. The Baileys write that they are always dealing with weather threats. Hail and frost are not only hard to plan for, but they can be devastating to an apple crop.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s why they purchase crop insurance. The Baileys consider crop insurance a fundamental part of the farm safety net and are asking Congress to continue to support this important program:<\/p>\n

Farming is our passion. As first-generation farmers, we know the difficulties that come with growing food. The COVID-19 virus has created more challenges and that\u2019s why we are thankful for the steps that Congress has taken to help support rural America by passing aid packages with help earmarked for farmers. <\/em><\/p>\n

However, it\u2019s important that Congress also support, long-term, the farm policies that assist our family farm and allow us to survive even the difficult years. <\/em><\/p>\n

That includes tools such as crop insurance. <\/em><\/p>\n

America\u2019s farmers are still farming. Let\u2019s make sure they have the tools they need.<\/p>\n
