we're now seeing a big increase in the number of chapter 12 bankruptcies in minnesota. unless we get our markets back, and the prices rebound, i feel many more farmers will be forced out of business. in addition to our current challenges, with low prices, market consolidation, and the increase of monopolies on the supply side, has caused input costs to rise dramatically. the cost of seed corn, soybean seed, and fertilizer, even when adjusted for inflation, have each doubled since i started farming full time in 1996. while we're more productive now than we've ever been, the increased input costs has outpaced the gains we've made in productivity. on our farm, we've adopted methods to cut our input costs, to usage levels that put us on par with the most efficient operations. we plant cover crops, use no till and zone tillage practices which reduce weed pressure and cut down chemical costs and usage, we pair that with precision fertilizer application which helps further reduce fertilizer costs and cut down on fuel usage and we don't grow late season hybrids to keep our cost

that bill passed the minnesota house by a 74-59 vote. to my colleagues in the united states senate, it's our turn as well. now, i believe that the best ideas come from people working at the local level to solve problems, and i also think that the best ideas that can get done are those that bring people together across regional differences, political ideology and their own life experiences, and that's how our bill, the clean energy standard act of 2019 came to be. it builds on what is already working at the local level. as a clean energy standard, it has a bipartisan history. back when republicans and democrats were working together on bills to reduce carbon pollution, all the way back in 2009 to 2012, clean energy standard bills, like this one, had both democratic and republican cosponsors. this bill, today, is supported by labor groups, by environmental groups, and by utilities, an unlikely but strong coalition in these days of divisive politics. so the basic of this plans are simple. first let's start with electric utilities are and th
