Iowa young farmers meet economic challenges head on

Despite the challenges presented by a weak ag economy, Laura and Aaron Cunningham, young farmers from Nora Springs, Iowa, say they have no regrets about their decision to take up farming.  In fact, the Cunninghams decided to meet those economic challenges head on by starting their own direct marketing beef business called SkyView Beef.

We visited with the the Cunninghams at the recent American Farm Bureau annual meeting in Phoenix.  They are active in Farm Bureau’s Young Farmers and Ranchers group.
