Edge's team member @MichaelKTorrey with Jay Truitt and @realKenRoot discussing post-election items: Who will serve as the next Sec. of Ag? Who will chair the House & Senate Ag Committees? What ramifications from the election will effect #agriculture. #NAFB20 #TheVoiceOfMilk @NAFB

Ordered to dump milk tonight. No collection due "to staff shortages, slower production" What a waste of all the effort that goes into producing quality food. #teamdairy

Emotional day, last pass of a 50 year farming career. Proud and happy to pass the farm on to my sons and grandsons! May God bless them as much as He blessed Sharon and I over those 50 years!

Farmers are connecting w/Kansas State University and University of Minnesota to drive technology implementation on farm. Succession to younger generation is also key, whether kids or young ag professionals coming back to farms through careful planning. @kcoeisom #WSJFood

As an industry, we are proud to be an integral part of the rural economy. Time & time again the private sector has shown its value to #farmers by providing efficient & timely indemnity payments. #ProtectCropInsurance #farmbill18
