The American Soybean Association extends its congratulations to Brooke Rollins on her confirmation as U.S. Department of Agriculture Secretary.
ASA President Caleb Ragland, a soybean farmer from Kentucky, said, “ASA looks forward to working with Secretary Rollins on a variety of key priorities, from the farm bill and biotechnology to biofuels support and agricultural trade, all of which have a significant impact on U.S. soybean farmers and the broader agricultural community. Additionally, ASA is committed to working with Secretary Rollins as USDA reviews conservation programs. Soy growers are dedicated to land preservation and actively participate in initiatives like Projects for Climate Smart Commodities and NRCS’ Environmental Quality Incentives Program. These programs are vital to support farmers’ conservation goals and ASA appreciates the secretary’s commitment to advancing USDA’s role in this important area.”
ASA welcomes the opportunity to collaborate with the U.S. Department of Agriculture under Rollins’ leadership on issues that are critical to the continued success of agriculture, both domestically and globally.
