In Kansas, Panasonic and two community colleges scaled up training fast. But jobs in the EV industry could be affected by Trump’s war on clean energy In a Kansas City classroom, 20 students were learning how basic circuit boards work. They fiddled with knobs, switches, levers and wires; if they got the connections right, tiny light bulbs glowed. The students, recruited for the opportunity by Panasonic, were participants in an eight-week apprenticeship course that involved classes at the community college and on-the-job training. When they’re done, they will be among the first workers at the company’s new electric vehicle battery factory in nearby De Soto, Kansas. The $4bn manufacturing plant – touted as the largest EV battery factory in the world – is expected to open in early summer and eventually employ roughly 4,000 people.

The previous week’s article had focused on the growth performance of the economy from July 2024 to March 2025. An assessment was made of the likely level of investment in 2024-25, after the abysmally low level in 2023-24.

Wheat farmers are in grave difficulty. Right before harvest, the price of wheat fell more than it did last year. So much so that, as they harvest wheat, farmers are seeing wheat prices below their cost of production. This is a situation in which farmers should be able to store their grain safely until prices rise and also get the funds they need for the next crop. Last year, the government packed up its heavy footprint in the traditional wheat supply chain and announced its intention to shift to a liberalized sector: more involvement of private parties and the wheat price following market principles. This year, the Government of Punjab has announced a package to allay farmers’ pain. The impact of this package is yet to come. The focus of the package is on supporting wheat purchases by flour millers—the key buyers of wheat—and giving the smallest wheat farmers cash directly. And these are critical because farmers need wheat prices to rise to reasonable levels as soon as possible. But wheat supply chain nee
