From the President:
Many of the new policy resolutions adopted at the IFB delegate session were accepted by the AFBF Resolutions committee. These include Safety (telecommunication companies removing abandoned fixtures), Industrial Hemp, Specialty Crops (expansion of NAP and cost-share funding GAP), Organic Standards, and Food Access.
Several states offered proposals opposing the use of ESG scoring by government and farm credit.
The Board is deciding which submittals to pursue in San Juan that were not accepted.
Merry Christmas to all!
