The president of the American Farm Federation (AFBF) stresses that trade agreements are more important to agriculture than people realize.
“Trade should not, should not, be a dirty word,” said AFBF President Zippy Duvall, in his annual address at the farm organization’s 99th Annual Convention Sunday. Even those within agriculture don’t understand what’s at stake if trade agreements are lost, said Duvall.
“Without those global markets, our already depressed farm economy would get even worse,” he said.
