American Farm Bureau Federation Welcomes New Secretary of Agriculture Sonny Perdue

Mon, 24 Apr 2017 17:29:51 CDT

The following may be attributed to American Farm Bureau Federation President Zippy Duvall: "Farm Bureau heartily congratulates Secretary Sonny Perdue on his new role leading our nation's Agriculture Department. We are eager for agriculture to finally have a seat in the president's cabinet, and we know Secretary Perdue is just as eager to get to work for farmers, consumers and rural America."


"Secretary Perdue is a long-time friend to me and farmers across Georgia, and soon to the millions of men and women across our country who feed and clothe our nation. He is a real-world farmer himself and knows the business inside out. He understands the impact farm labor shortages, trade agreements and regulations have on a farmer's bottom line and ability to stay in business from one season to the next. There's important work ahead for the secretary, and he'll need to address these challenges against the backdrop of the biggest drop in farm prices and income we've seen in decades. But just like America's farmers and ranchers, I know Secretary Perdue isn't afraid of a hard day's work. We are confident he is the right man for the job at hand."
