  • Oil Dollars Benefit Some Of Those In Agriculture

    Lois Kerr|Mar 7, 2012

    Every issue has its positives and negatives. Oil has changed the face of the MonDak region forever, it has caused serious problems with housing, infrastructure, the ability of natives to conduct daily business, and it has forced people to rethink individual values and priorities. For those farmers without mineral rights, farming only gets more and more difficult as input costs soar and the available land becomes increasingly more expensive to buy or to rent.

When crude p...
