I'm in a rural college town surrounded by soy and corn farmers. I know farmers have been on edge since they have no one to sell their soy to this year. Most of them seemed to think Trump was gonna give them a bailout, but the shutdown has come right in the peak of harvest season so i assume most of them are freaking tf out right now. But i haven't heard much word from them since farmers don't really come into town much during the harvest.
