Iowa soybean growers want the administration to know how important trade agreements are to farmers. Iowa Soybean Association President Elect Lindsay Greiner tells Brownfield the organization set policy specific to the U.S. pulling out of the Trans-Pacific Partnership negotiations.
“We’re in favor of expanding trade or any kind of trade we could do with Pacific Rim countries,” Greiner told Brownfield Ag News at the conclusion of the Iowa Soybean Association annual policy conference in Des Moines Thursday, “and the way commodity prices are now, why of course that would be very important to farmers.”
Iowa Soybean farmer delegates also set policy on conservation.
