Leaders representing Minnesota’s turkey industry are in Washington D.C. this week voicing priorities to members of Congress.
Butch Brey is a breeder from Sleepy Eye and president of the Minnesota Turkey Research and Promotion Council.
“Talking to our legislators on farm bill priorities (and) the foreign animal disease program, we’re basically asking for a continuation of the 2018 Farm Bill, with of course, higher funding rates.”
He tells Brownfield that program should continue focusing on prevention, surveillance, and response.
