Joahanns will release farm bill proposals at Tunica on Wednesday
U.S. Ag Secretary Mike Joahanns will stop in Tunica, Miss., on Wednesday for a briefing session on the Administration's Farm Bill proposal, according to a memo from the Mississippi Farm Bureau Federation. The session will be held at the Tunica Airport starting at 1:15 p.m.
This apparently is the first presentation the administration will make on its proposed farm bill.
The stop is part of a flying trip to blitz key ag regions in the last half of the week. A stop is planned that evening at a farm show in Iowa. On Thursday, another session will be held at the Stanislaus County Agriculture Center in Modesto County, starting at 8 a.m.
The secretary jets to Nashville, Tenn., after that for an appearance on RFD-TV Thurday night, followed by a presentation Friday at the National Cattlemen's Beef Association annual convention, also in Nashville.
