Ag groups talk market competition with White House officials

In a recent meeting with the Biden administration agriculture groups said there’s still work to do in promoting competition and fairness in the marketplace.

The White House Competition Council and USDA met with 16 agriculture groups on Thursday to discuss ways to advance more competition in key agriculture markets.

Lia Biondo, executive vice-president with the U.S. Cattlemen’s Association, attended the meeting. She tells Brownfield support from Congress on two cattle price transparency bills would be helpful and the new farm bill could be home for the legislation.
