Often, there are no mental health providers in the local community. On this episode, we talk with Josie Rudolphi, an assistant professor of agricultural and biological engineering in the College of ACES and University of Illinois Extension about what some of the risk factors for depression and anxiety among farmers are, and what resources are available to help.
