👩🌾 The Midwest ‘Farm Team’ gathered again in South Dakota last week for our fourth annual Midwest Agricultural Export Summit. This year’s them was “Capitalizing on our Comparative Advantages” and I highlighted three reasons this focus is crucial in securing our food supply and the future of our family farms: 🚨Global conflict is increasing and hurts our ability to sell overseas - we export about 20% of what is grown and raised in America. ⛽️ American energy security is dependent on an all-of-the-above energy policy including #biofuels. Midwest innovation can make America energy dominant. 🌎 Foreign growers are becoming increasingly competitive despite our advances in #biotechnology. We need to unleash American ag! It was an honor to have a former cabinet secretary, two of America’s (current and former) Chief Ag Negotiators, a number of ambassadors and foreign diplomats, seven CEOs/Board Chairmen, a Member of Congress, four state ag secretaries and 200 attendees from across the region congregate in Sioux Falls to strengthen our global competitiveness. Thanks to all who participated! I’m proud to work alongside you in this crucial endeavor.
